Hakeem Olajuwon is often seen as a pinch-hitter for Michael Jordan, carrying the mantle when Jordan played baseball. But was he more than that? How valuable was Hakeem's scoring on offense? How much did his passing hold him back? And was he the best defender of the 3-point era?

This is the 8th episode in a series on the greatest peaks in NBA history (focusing on 1977-2020), featuring detailed scouting reports and film breakdown on the best players in NBA history at their best, along with analysis of their impact using historical data & stats to size up the highest peaking players ever.
