Gary Payton, known as “The Glove,” is an NBA legend remembered for his relentless defense and leadership with the Seattle SuperSonics. The only point guard to ever win Defensive Player of the Year, he left an indelible mark on the league. Recently, he surprised fans by naming his all-time starting five, leaving LeBron James off the list.

The Hall of Fame point guard revealed his dream lineup, slotting himself alongside some of the game’s greatest legends. “If you want me to put myself in there, and I really don’t put myself in there, I’ll be at the point. The two, I’d probably put Michael Jordan. The three, I’d put Kobe. The four, I’d put Shawn Kemp, and I would always do this for center, I’d put Wilt Chamberlain,” Payton said during a recent visit to the Philippines.
