Hakeem Olajuwon

  Hakeem was one of the top NBA players of his time selected number 1 overall some people thought he might be too skinny. I'm sure many had doubts about drafting someone from out of the country or from Nigeria. But they changed their tune when he started getting blocks in with his seven-foot 2 or 3 frame. He could easily block balls as well as that he was fast and quick for his height. He developed the shake'n'bake which scored him over 300 points in some playoffs. He played for the Houston rockets mainly. He also carried them many times to the playoffs and won two championships after his NBA career which he earned 160 million dollars from. After the league, he trained people in the shake'n'bake for 50,000$.
