When I was a kid, I saw a lot of Shaolin kung fu performances," said O'Neal, as he toured the temple in central Henan province on Monday.
"I always wanted to know if Shaolin kung fu was real or not. Now, at last I know -- the Chinese kung fu I saw on television, it was all real," the four-time NBA champion said in remarks translated into Chinese.
"When I go home I will study this and hopefully even use it when I'm playing basketball."
"I am really interested in snake-style kung fu," Titan quoted O'Neal as saying.
"When I retire, I hope to come back to the Shaolin Temple to study for a year. To come here just this one time is not enough."
