Sadly, the world lost one of the Greatest basketball player on earth Kobe Bryant. Personally, I would feel that Kobe Bryant sits comfortably on top five greatest N.B.A players in the history of the world. The greats like Magic and Shaq had proclaimed Kobe Bryant despite ridiculous trolls about Kobe Bryant.

Kobe Bryant had an instant impact on the game of Basketball and we can all agree that.

Kobe was the NBA MVP, 5-time champion, two times Final MVP, 18- time All Star and nine all defensive first team selections, also the fourth leading scorer.

NUMBER 4: MAGIC JOHNSON

It is an honour to talk about the King of Point Guards in the history of Basketball. Magic Johnson had the ability to control the game like a Defensive midfielder in football with his remarkable vision to deceive defenders which makes him sit comfortably at number 4. Also when compared with other basketball players, he was overall the best passer of the ball.

He won five championships, three MVPs,nine- time All -NBA first team selections,etc. Magic had a special flair about his style of play with a good leadership skill.

NUMBER 3: KAREEM ABDUL-JABBAR

All Hail King Kareem Abdul- Jabbar, the NBA's all- time leading scorer and originator of the most dangerous shot in league history with a total of 38,000+ career points. The King truly reigned in the NBA kingdom with a reign that was unmatched.

Kareem Abdul-Jabbar played as a center and won six MVPs, 19 time NBA All Star ,15 time All- NBA selection and an 11 time NBA All Defensive Team not forgetting how he won all individual award for a super player

NUMBER 2: LEBRON JAMES

The name LeBron James signifies Power and Success, some might arguably call him number one in the world for some valid reasons. But I would place the legend as Number two, LeBron was hyped and he ensured the hypes were not in vain as he embraced the game and made it look easy.

LeBron James was a 4 time NBA champion, 4 time MVP, 18 time NBA All Star, 5 times All Defensive First Team, with alot of individual awards too numerous to mention.

NUMBER 1: MICHAEL JORDAN

I represent to you all, the greatest basketball player of all time. He dominated basketball left the sport and return back only to continue reigning as King of the the Game. Michael Jordan's Basketball records are insane.

He won 6 NBA championship, 5 times NBA MVP, 14 times NBA All Star, 10 times All NBA first team not to mention his individual records which nothing like we have seen in basketball's history. He is estimated to be worth $1.6 Billion according to Forbes.
