Top 30 Best Defenders in NBA History

4. Dennis Rodman

Dennis Rodman was never known for his play on offense, but rather his ability to do all of the dirty work necessary for his team to win. Rodman was one of the best rebounders that we have ever seen, leading the league in that category seven times and averaging over 13 rebounds per game in his career. Rodman made eight All-Defensive Teams, seven of them on the First-Team, and won two Defensive Player of the Year Awards.
