Shaquille O’Neal is back in the gym just over a week after he underwent hip replacement surgery.
The “Inside the NBA” personality took to Instagram on Sunday with a video of him walking with a single crutch in what appeared to be a home gym — as there was a portrait of his face on the wall.
O’Neal can be seen moving pretty well in the clip, which showed the NBA legend on an arm press machine.
O’Neal jokingly challenged a bunch of “old dudes” to a pickup game of basketball in his caption.
“Out to get my game back,” O’Neal wrote. “All you old dudes that hoop in n @24hrfitness @lafitness @lifetimefitness I’m coming for y’all.”
The comments section included messages from actor Jamie Foxx, Sonya Curry and Papa Johns.
“Bro, this s–t almost made me cry,” Foxx wrote, while Papa Johns — the pizza chain that O’Neal is an investor — added, “You got this 🙌.”
Sonya Curry, the mother of NBA stars Steph and Seth Curry, wrote: “Keep grinding and get well soon!!👏🙏🏼.”
Spice Adams, O’Neal’s “The Big Podcast” co-host, took to the comments writing: “LETS GO BIG DAWG!!!! LOVE YOU MAN!!!!”
The Post’s Andrew Marchand confirmed last Monday that Shaq underwent a hip replacement procedure over the weekend.
O’Neal, who turned 51 earlier this month, initially had fans concerned when he shared a photo of himself in a hospital bed.

At the time, the Basketball Hall of Famer did not share any details about his health or why he was hospitalized.
Instead, he sent a message to his fellow TNT co-hosts, Ernie Johnson and Candace Parker, writing, “I’m always watching @TurnerSportsEJ and @Candace_Parker miss y’all.”
O’Neal then joked about getting “some BBL work” done while reassuring fans that they have “no need to worry” about his recent surgery.

The four-time NBA champion discussed the surgery on his podcast earlier this month, and said he was hopeful to return to the gym and his diet in April.
“I’ll be back April 16, and I’m going in,” O’Neal said on “The Big Podcast with Shaq.”
“I’m going to try and lose 30 pounds and I’m going to try and get an eight-pack. Right now I got a little five-pack.”
O’Neal explained that he’s going to follow a “51 diet,” which he said is “five BS meals and one meal.”
His five meals include: a shake for breakfast; a fruit plate; four chicken breasts with ketchup; a salad; and a shake.

“I’m going to do that for 90 days,” O’Neal said. “I’m about to be shredded.”
It’s unclear when O’Neal will return to the air for TNT.
