NBA legend Shaquille O'Neal's sister Ayesha Harrison-Jex died Thursday night after a prolonged battle with cancer.

Harrison-Jex, 40, was diagnosed with cancer in 2016. O'Neal's co-host Ernie Johnson announced the sad news during the TNT's Inside the NBA sports program on Thursday.

O'Neal was noticeably absent during the sports analyst program that normally features O'Neal alongside Johnson, Charles Barkley, Candace Parker and Kenny Smith.

"I'm trying to put into words the way Shaquille has reacted to this, and he's struggling," Johnson said. "And when he struggles, we struggle with him. Because he's one of our brothers and we feel for him tonight."

Johnson added that O'Neal, 47, is currently in Orlando, Florida, with his family.

Barkley said kind words to O'Neal's mother, Lucille O'Neal, who was there for his family when his mother died.

NBA commissioner Adam Silver, who was on the show, also sent his condolences to the O'Neal family.

"It's times like this when we're all together," Silver said.

Shaquille tweeted, "Thanks for the condolences and the love. If I had older brothers, it would be you 3. Love y'all and love you more Candice."

Harrison-Jex leaves behind a son Bryce, according to Johnson. She will be laid to rest in a military cemetery and will be buried next to O’Neal’s stepfather, Sgt. Phillip Harrison.

Shaquille O’Neal and New Girlfriend Celebrate His B-Day at Krave Lounge

Shaquille O'Neal and new girlfriend at Krave Lounge with Omar Slim White

Sorry ladies, Shaquille O'Neal is off the market again.

@OmarSlimWhite of Plush Blue Entertainment brought the former NBA star to Krave Lounge in Atlanta over the weekend. Shaq brought along his new girlfriend to help him celebrate his 42nd birthday! (Yes, he has a type.)

If you recall, Shaq dated 30-year-old Flavor of Love reality star Nicole "Hoopz" Alexander for a few years. But the age (and maturity) differences finally took its toll on their relationship. Shaq has 4 children with ex-wife Shaunie O'Neal (and he has a daughter from a previous relationship). Shaunie produces the scripted reality TV series Basketball Wives (Miami) and Basketball Wives LA.

According to Radaronline.com, Allred filed a motion in Miami to withdraw as counsel to Shaquille O'Neal's former mistress, Vanessa Lopez, citing fraud.

Allred wrote in her motion: “Despite engaging in all reasonable, diligent and exhaustive effort on behalf of the client, counsel must withdraw as continued representation will likely result in one or more ethical violations..."

Shaquille O’Neal gives LeBron James a hickey for his birthday

LeBron Shaquille hickey

LeBron James celebrated his 28th birthday on December 30, and NBA legend Shaquille O'Neal gave his former teammate a late birthday gift: a hickey on his neck!

The video is all over the Internet. But I won't post it here due to the ignorance of the video uploader.

The Miami Heat cruised to a 99-90 win over the hapless LA Lakers behind LeBron's 39 points and 8 rebounds in last night's game at the Staples Center in LA. The win wrapped up the Heat's six-game road trip on Dwayne Wade's birthday. He turned 31 Thursday.

On January 16, LeBron became the youngest NBA player to reach 20,000 points in his career in a win over the Golden State Warriors.

    Shaquille O’Neal’s son calls out his mother’s boyfriend on Instagram

    Shaquille O'Neal

    Maybe NBA legend Shaquille O'Neal should have 'that talk' with his son about proper manners and how he should conduct himself when prying eyes are watching.

    According to Gossipwelove (via INCAK), Shaunie O'Neal's 15 year-old son, Myles O'Neal, called the reality star's boyfriend, Marlon Yates Jr., a "fa--ot," on Instagram.

    Myles is the boy 2nd from left in the above photo. He obviously isn't fond of his mother's effeminate boyfriend.

    Celebs Out & About

    The Casio Watch Company held an event in NYC yesterday and this bald headed heiffer, Amber Rose, was on the stage with the other celebrities. Why was she onstage when she is not a celebrity? So all it takes to be a celeb now is to spread your legs for another celeb? No wonder the entertainment biz is struggling.

    Woman beater Chris Brown and his mom were in a Los Angeles courtroom yesterday to hear his sentence for beating his ex-girlfriend Rihanna to a pulp earlier this year. The punk previously pleaded guilty to felony assault charges and he faces five years probation and 180 days of labor-oriented community service in Virginia. But his sentencing was postponed until August 27. What's this I hear that Rihanna is petitioning the judge to reduce the limits of Chris Brown's restraining order because she wants him closer? What is wrong with Rihanna? I'm hoping we won't have to ban Rihanna from this blog again?

    Sports: Hawks send Kobe and the Lakers packing

    Kobe Beans Bryant and the Lakers rolled into A town and got their heads handed to them by the Hawks last night. Joe Johnson led all scorers with 28 points as the Hawks wore down the Laker's defense and sent them packing 98-95.

    Later that night, a few Lakers players were spotted partying at NOIR nightclub with Young Jeezy who had something to say about the Keyshia Cole mess (more on that later).

    Meanwhile, the Suns acquired Miami Heat center Shaquille O'Neal in a stunning trade for Shawn Marion and Marcus Banks. The deal was finalized on Wednesday when the four-time NBA champ passed a physical despite being out with a hip injury. O'Neal turns 36 next month.
