Rodman is a central figure for 'The Last Dance' Episode 3 that's to air Sunday night on ESPN. Though flashy with his dyed hair, facial piercings and tattoos, he was a tenacious rebounder who won three championships with Chicago.
Dennis Rodman became known as a tenacious rebounder and defensive player for the Detroit Pistons during their back-to-back NBA titles in 1989 and 1990. He was a member of the squad known as"The Bad Boys."
Michael Jordan pats Dennis Rodman , both of the Chicago Bulls, after Rodman was called for a technical foul 03 May during the second half of their NBA eastern conference semi-finals game against the Charlotte Hornets at the United Center in Chicago, IL.After pulling down 9.7 rebounds a game during the 1989-1990 repeat for the Pistons, Rodman averaged more than 11 rebounds each of the next 10 seasons, including eight of those with more than 14 rebounds a game. His best season was 18.
And just as Jordan was the main engine that made the Bulls run, he was the highest-paid player. Though Rodman was a main cog that helped that engine go, he didn't make quite as much money. Rodman, too, departed after that season, going to the Los Angeles Lakers for a season and then the Dallas Mavericks for one year to finish out his career. Rodman was reportedly paid $1 million by the Lakers and then he was paid less than $450,000 by the Mavericks in the 1999-2000 season.
