LaVar Ball: 3 NBA Legends that the 'Big Baller Brand' founder claims he could beat 1-on-1

#1 Michael Jordan

Michael Jordan is widely regarded as the greatest basketball player of all-time

Just days after feuding with Charles Barkley, LaVar Ball decided to take aim at the greatest athlete of all-time. During 15 seasons in the NBA, Michael Jordan won six championships, six NBA Finals Most Valuable Player Awards, ten scoring titles, five MVP Awards, and the 1988 NBA Defensive Player of the Year Award.

However, this didn't stop Ball declaring that Jordan couldn't stop him in a 1-on-1 game:

I would kill Michael Jordan one-on-one. I would just back in and lift him off the ground and call a foul every time he fouls me when I do a jump hook to the right or the left. He cannot stop me one-on-one. He better make every shot ’cause he can’t go around me. He’s not fast enough.

Jordan eventually responded to the outlandish claim - highlighting LaVar's awful college record:

He averaged 2.2 points a game. Really? It doesn't deserve a response, but I'm giving it to you because you asked the question. I don't think he could beat me if I was one-legged.

Jordan's crushing response seemed to be the end of the debate, although LaVar has since stated his desire to face the NBA legend in a 1-on-1 game.
