  10. Number of Games Shaq Played in a Season Analysis Recently, in the 2010-2011 season, Shaq was not playing in as many games as he did when he was young. In fact, he played his minimum number of games in his last season. So, if Shaq were to continue playing, he will likely be playing less and less games. Therefore, the minimum number of games that Shaq plays will decrease.

Then, Shaq stayed in the approximate same range of shots made while he was 21-29. Between the ages of 30 and 38, there was a noticeable drop in his performance of shots made. One could say that as Shaq got older, the number of shots he made decreased.
