Andre Iguodala Says Rasheed Wallace Would Be Better Than Giannis In Today's Game

Posted Jul 12, 2022
"Rasheed Wallace probably could have been top five player in the NBA for a 10-year stretch," Andre Iguodala said. "He just chose, ‘I’ll do my thing over here.’ He was shooting 3s from half court. If Rasheed Wallace played in modern-day basketball today, he’d be the top five player in the league. He’d be better than Giannis, and I love Giannis." (Sports Illustrated)
