News summary

Atlanta Hawks guard Trae Young sparked debate by naming his all-time NBA team on the 'Million Dollaz Worth of Game' podcast, placing himself as the point guard and selecting Kobe Bryant as the shooting guard over Michael Jordan, whom he designated as the sixth man. Young argued that Bryant is the 'MJ of his time,' reflecting the influence of Bryant on current players. He filled the forward positions with Kevin Durant and LeBron James and chose Shaquille O'Neal as the center. Young also expressed that if he were taller, he believes he could be the best player in NBA history, citing his mentality and skill despite his 6'1” height disadvantage. He acknowledged his achievements as a three-time All-Star but noted that his individual success has not translated into significant team success. Young's selections highlight a generational shift in admiration from Jordan to Bryant, showcasing the lasting impact of the 'Mamba Mentality' on younger players.
