Dennis Rodman, nicknamed "The Worm," is a retired American professional basketball player known for his exceptional rebounding, tenacious defense, and controversial public persona. He played 14 seasons in the NBA, winning five championships with the Detroit Pistons and Chicago Bulls. Rodman was a seven-time NBA rebounding champion, a two-time NBA Defensive Player of the Year, and a member of the NBA's 75th Anniversary Team. Beyond his on-court prowess, he garnered significant media attention for his flamboyant style, including his ever-changing hair color, tattoos, and piercings, as well as his high-profile relationships and friendships, most notably his unlikely connection with North Korean leader Kim Jong-un. While often perceived as a rebellious figure, Rodman's dedication to rebounding and defense cemented his place as one of the greatest defensive players in NBA history.
