Robert Johansson+FollowDennis Rodman: The 5'9" Late Bloomer Who Became a LegendDennis Rodman was cut from his high school team at 5’9”—only to grow nearly a foot in a year and discover basketball at age 21. By 25, he was drafted—and went on to become one of the greatest rebounders and most feared defenders in NBA history. Truly one of the wildest origin stories ever. #NBA #DennisRodman #BadBoys #NBALegend #GrowthSpurt #HeightTips #DPOY #ReboundingKing #Sports 181Share

FromTheLand+Follow LeBron’s 2009 MVP Season Was LegendaryAt just 24 years old, LeBron James led a Cavs team with a 66-16 record and secured his first MVP. He averaged 28 points, 8 rebounds, and 7 assists on elite efficiency (+4.7 rTS%). In the ECF loss to the Magic, He stepped up, putting up a ridiculous 39/8/8 on +8.3 rTS% against the league’s best defense. He also finished 2nd in DPOY voting. Crazy to look back at how much he carried that roster and just how dominant he already was at such a young age. #LeBronJames #MVP #Cavs #NBAHistory #MyNBAGOAT #NBALegend #Basketball #Sports 31Share
