Shaquille O'Neal will be returning to TV screens this weekend in a new Buick TV add called "More Than I Expected," which is just the latest of the "You Don't Know Buick" campaign. GM announced the news in a company press release this week.
This is Shaq's second commercial for the LaCrosse where the four-time NBA Champion learns the car offers more than just a typical luxury vehicle.
"Like my Mom said the day I was born, 'Wow, that's a lot more than I expected," said O'Neal according to the company press release.

The 2013 LaCrosse sedan comes equipped with a fuel-efficient 2.4-liter gas engine, eAssist which uses a compact lithium-ion battery pack and small electric motor to aid performance.
The fuel-efficient engine allows the LaCrosse to achieve an EPA-estimated 36 mpg on the highway without having to give up any of the sedan's cabin room.
"The fuel efficiency, the sleekness of it, the way it feels, I just think it's a beautiful car." O'Neill said about the LaCrosse in a behind-the-scenes video. "I don't like commercials where they force stuff at you. We just want to tell them how the car looks, and we want to let them know we're trying to save them some of that gas money."
Shaq has been retired from the NBA since 2011, last playing with the Boston Celtics. He played 19 seasons in the NBA, including 11 with the Lakers, and the Miami Heat where he won four championships according to BasketballReference.com.
