Hakeem Olajuwon (1985-2002)
We are glad that Hakeem Olajuwon did not waste a nickname as cool as “The Dream”! He averaged 2.3 steals per game, the highest in NBA center history. He averaged 3.1 blocks per game and then 3.3 in the playoffs. In the postseason, he averaged 25.9 points per game. Aside from these things, he also got an MVP award, 2 titles, 2 Defensive Player of the Year awards, and 12 All-Star selections. Wow.

Bill Russell (1956-1969)
Can you believe that Bill Russell has 11 NBA titles during the 13 seasons he played in the league? With his incredible rebounding skills, he was integral to the success of the Boston Celtics. He averaged an incredible 25.5 rebounds per 48 minutes played. He was a 12-time All-Star selection and 5-time league MVP as well. Yes, we doubt that his record will ever be defeated.
