Hakeem Olajuwon had two primary teams in his NBA career, namely the Houston Rockets and the Toronto Raptors. This led to back-to-back championship wins in 1994 and 1995 and a career that lasted all the way until 2002. His off-court antics were often applauded too, where he was known to mentor up-and-coming players like Kobe Bryant, Lebron James and more.
