NBA all-star Shaquille O'Neal was among more than 14 million people who viewed video of Gainesville Police Officer Bobby White responding to a call about kids playing "loudly" in the street by joining the group in a game of hoops instead of shutting them down.

The 4-time champ made a surprise stop at the Gainesville Police Department on Saturday to praise White and help the officer make good on a promise to "bring backup" for another pickup game with the kids.

Dashcam footage of White responding to the noise complaint went viral after the department posted the video to its Facebook page on Thursday, with the message: "We're going to let kids be kids. We are going to focus on the ones that commit crimes. #HoopsNotCrime."

The officer returned to the scene of the non-crime to challenge the kids to a rematch on Saturday.
