Javale McGee is a beast on the defensive end and has been an elite rim protector and pick-and-roll option for two championship winning teams. Before getting to the Warriors, McGee was known for his regular appearances on Shaqtin A Fool.

McGee was one of the few players to be remembered for his on-court lapses over his humorous personality off of it. His on-court lapses were so hysterical that Shaq dubbed him "Kareem Abdul McGee" in reference to the opposite of Lakers legend Kareem Abdul Jabbar.

O'Neal's bullying of McGee sometimes went overboard but credit to the former Lakers center for taking it like a champ and upping his game to win three titles.

McGee's high energy blog was a massive hit among fans, especially during the 2020 bubble, as we were able to witness a completely different side to the players. Javale looks like he is grooming himself to be a future hit media personality post his playing career.

#2 LeBron James

LeBron James will go down in history as one of the greatest players to ever grace the hardwood. The 18-time All-Star and four-time NBA champion has achieved everything there is to achieve in the game but still comes back with a relentless drive and passion that makes it seem like he has found the fountain of youth.

LeBron is also known to be a huge prankster, who loves to have fun with his teammates either by imitating them, flipping bottles on the sideline during the game, playing pickup football as a prematch routine or making hilarious expressions during interviews.

The stark difference between his on-court and off-court personality makes it seem like he has an off switch which he hits the moment he steps off the hardwood. His sense of humor is clearly visible on camera as he leaves teammates in splits around him more often than not.

His charming and confident personality helps LeBron be himself without worrying about how someone might perceive him. The King turns to a jester in a heartbeat to lighten the mood in an environment that is usually extremely serious, allowing players around him to relax and be their natural self, leading to better camraderie and chemistry within the team.

#1 Giannis Antetokounmpo

Giannis Antetokounmpo is the most dominant player we have had since Shaquille O'Neal and is a force of nature on the court with his ferocious dunks and his gazelle-like speed.

Giannis, like LeBron, has an off switch, he has a serious dominating demeanor on the court and a fun-jovial personality off of it.

Tweets about Greek Freak's adventures in the US have left fans in splits, showing us a completely different side to the 2020 MVP.

His pre-match routine with Robin Lopez, where they recreate wrestling moves, is something that is truly unique that only somebody with Giannis' personality can pull off. His sense of humor is evident in most interviews, making him a favorite in the media.

Giannis Antetokounmpo will surely be a first-ballot Hall-of-Famer in the future, once he wraps up his playing career, he should surely consider becoming a television personality or a movie star because people cannot seem to get enough of the Greek Freak and his childlike charm.
