It's the off-season, and some of the NBA's biggest stars are looking to unload real estate. We have photos, and we'll be sharing them in our House of the Day series.

With Shaquille O'Neal's (just about) cross-country switching of teams last season -- and maybe due to the divorce proceedings that were eventually halted -- his place in Star Island, Florida recently hit the market. The asking price is $29 million, and when you look at the specs it's easy to see why.

The home sits on 2.5 acres, and besides the fact that it's located on an exclusive artificial island, it has such amenities as a tennis court, a dock, a guest house, an indoor basketball court, and a pool complete with Superman logo (naturally). Oh, and there's the sentimental value of owning the house originally built by Rony Seikaly, which is really something that you can't put a price on. A couple more photos after the jump.
