Dennis Keith Rodman (born May 13 1961) is an American professional basketball player best known for his fierce defensive and rebounding ability, leading the National Basketball Association in rebounds per game for a record seven consecutive years and earning NBA All-Defensive First Team honors seven times, along with five NBA Championships (1989, 1990, 1996, 1997, 1998). He is the all-time leader in rebound rate and is generally regarded as one of the greatest rebounders of all-time, particularly on the offensive end of the court. He is also well-known for his controversial antics on and off the court. He has been featured in several media and television roles. When Rodman entered the NBA Draft in 1986, he was officially listed at 6'7" while playing one of the most physical positions in basketball at power forward. Despite often being matched at a height disadvantage, he became one of the most dominant rebounders in NBA history, and was also a two-time NBA Defensive Player of the Year.
