Iverson names Kobe, Shaq in top-5 players list

Allen Iverson showed love to his contemporaries when asked to list his all-time starting five.

In an interview with rapper Jadakiss, The Answer named Kobe Bryant, Shaquille O'Neal, Michael Jordan, and LeBron James to his top-five basketball players list, before stopping short on the fifth.

"(The fifth one) could be a lot of dudes," Iverson said.

He mentioned Carmelo Anthony, Kevin Durant, Stephen Curry, Russell Westbrook, and Kyrie Irving as options, but Iverson himself could very well be the fifth. His truncated roster does lack a point guard.

AI also went on to name his top-five rappers of all time. He listed Jadakiss, Biggie, Redman, and Tupac before reeling off a handful of names worthy of the fifth spot.
