Numerous incredible players . They have some pretty incredible names hanging from the rafters and have at least three players you could put on the NBA Mount Rushmore. It’s a franchise that will continue to boast legendary for years to come. A couple the team’s current players, Dwight Howard and Danny Green, recently spoke to Taylor Rooks for her Bleacher Report show, Take It There. 

During the episode, Howard and Green were asked to speak about some the Lakers legends and which guys would end up on their all-time Lakers starting five. Howard’s picks were all pretty obvious although Green certainly came in with some independent thought.

“I’ll take a different route,” Green said. “I’m gonna go with Magic at one, Kobe at two, LeBron at three, A.D. (Anthony Davis) at four, and a lot people aren’t going to like this, but I’m going to go with Big Game James (James Worthy) at five.”

“At point guard, ,” Howard explained. “Two guard, Kobe Bryant. Three, I gotta go LeBron (James). Four, Shaq (Shaquille O’Neal). Five is Kareem (Abdul-Jabbar).

Both these starting fives would dominate in any era so you can’t be mad at Green for his alternative way thinking. With these answers in mind, let us know what players you would pick for your all-time Lakers starting five.
