Dennis Rodman was an exceptional NBA player known for his eccentric behavior and tenacity on the court. Despite being undersized, he was a great defender and rebounder, making him valuable to teams such as the Kobe-Shaq Lakers in 1999. However, his erratic behavior was not appreciated by all teammates, including Kobe and Shaq, who reportedly envied the attention he received. Rodman's solitary season with the Lakers saw him start just 11 games before being released, but the Lakers went on to win the championship for the next three seasons.
