Jared Dudley is returning “home” to the Phoenix Suns, and he’s very happy about it. The Players’ Tribune published a piece by Dudley on Wednesday in which he explains why he loves the fans, the city and the franchise so much. The 31-year-old vet tells stories about some of his favorite memories from playing with Shaq and Steve Nash.

The funniest part (aside from Dudley saying Shaq called him “a hip-hop Grant Hill”) is this:
Everybody was set, ready to begin, and right before I went to deal, Shaq cut in.
“Wait, wait, wait, hold up a sec,” he said, as he tried to squeeze out of his seat. We weren’t sure what the deal was. He had a serious look on his face like he needed to tell us something super important.
He flipped his headphones off his massive head and said: “You guys gotta listen to this beat I just made.”
We all sort of looked at him confused, and started to crack up.
“For real.”
The beat he played wasn’t the most melodic … it sort of sounded like a drive-by shooting. Just a bunch of different gun noises mixed with drums.
He was so hyped it was hilarious.
DJ Shaq.
Shaq is still a DJ to this day.
