Undoubtedly,
Kareem Abdul-Jabbar is one of the greatest players to ever put on a
basketball uniform, scoring more points (38,387), blocking more shots
(3,189), winning more MVP Awards (6) than other players in NBA history
and is recognised as one of the 50 greatest Players in NBA History.
Kareem Abdul-Jabbar transcended the sport and guided the centre
position into the modern era and, along with Magic Johnson, led his Los
Angeles Lakers to 5 NBA titles for a total of 6 in his illustrious
career.
Over his 20 years in the NBA, Kareem averaged 24.6 points per game
with an astonishing, 559 field goal percentage. He almost identified
with the "sky-hook" shot that was un-defendable and his ability to
change the other team's offensive strategy because of his presence
beneath the rim. Kareem is a walking book of basketball knowledge who
demonstrates how the fundamentals of the game can be translated to
ultimate success.
