Timeline
- 2024
"No one has equaled the line Wembanyama put up against the Lakers since Hakeem Olajuwon in 1990." - 2023
"Paul spent two years there, and while he didn’t lead them to their best run as a franchise ever (that was Hakeem Olajuwon), he did one-up his success at his last two spots – leading them one win away from the NBA Finals." - 2022
"The NBA also announced the following name changes: The Hakeem Olajuwon Trophy - Awarded to the NBA Defensive Player of the Year The Wilt Chamberlain Trophy - Awarded to the NBA Rookie of the Year The John Havlicek Trophy - Awarded to the NBA Sixth Man of the Year The George Mikan Trophy - Awarded to the NBA Most Improved Player of the Year The Jerry West Trophy - Awarded to the NBA Clutch Player of the Year (New Award)" - 2021
"When Hakeem Olajuwon left the Rockets in 2001, Steve Francis’ rose to prominence and became the new face of Houston." - 2020
"Michael Jordan vs. Hakeem Olajuwon: Breaking down the Bulls-Rockets NBA Finals we never got to see" - 2019
"Only Michael Jordan and Hakeem Olajuwon have won MVP and Defensive Player of the Year in the same season before." - 2018
"Steve Francis Opens Up About Life Before And After The NBA" - 2017
"The post Robert Horry: Hakeem Olajuwon Was ’20 Times Better’ Than Tim Duncan appeared first on SLAMonline." - 2016
"" Even if Durant didn't win a championship like me, John Stockton or players who briefly spent time elsewhere like Ewing, Karl Malone and Hakeem Olajuwon, the rest of the world would have looked at him in a different light because he fought, rather than joined, the giants—LeBron, Stephen Curry, Draymond Green, Chris Paul, etc." - 2015
"Ditto with Hakeem Olajuwon and the Houston Rockets, or the Miami Heat's Big Three." - 2014
"Less than a week after surpassing Hakeem Olajuwon on the NBA all-time scoring list, the Dallas Mavericks' star forward scored 11 more points against the Charlotte Hornets Monday night to run his total to 27,000: The Star-Telegram's Dwain Price added another interesting tidbit, noting Nowitzki's impressive loyalty to the Mavs: As the smooth-shooting big man continues his ascent on the scoring list, we are constantly reminded not only of his unique impact on the NBA, but of the 36-year-old's unbelievable longevity."
