Dennis Rodman is one of the most celebrated basketball players in NBA history. He’s one of the greatest rebounders of all time and played a vital role in helping the Chicago Bulls win their second three-peat.

Dennis Rodman’s daughter’s passionate words

The United States are two-time defending champions and a lot will be riding on Rodman if they plan on making it a three-peat. She scored twice in the summer warmup game against Wales for the USWNT before the team took off for the world cup taking place in New Zealand and Australia. Fans will be hoping Trinity can follow in her father’s footsteps as he was part of a historic three-peat with the Chicago Bulls in the late nineties.

Fans know Trinity Rodman for being proactive on the soccer field. She’ll be an important asset if the US is going to reclaim the title. Before jetting off to the World Cup, in a conversation with RedBull, she said, “I think my personality comes through in the way that I play… Growing up, people didn’t really know what my family and I were going through.”

She’s known for being relentless on the football pitch just like her father, the great Dennis Rodman, was on the basketball court. She continued, “But when I was on the field, everything was equal — there was no talk about finances or living situations or family stuff. It was just soccer—the ball and the field and me. I was always happy on the field. And I still feel the same way.”

Dennis Rodman is an intelligent individual says Byron Scott

Dennis Rodman was known to be a wild individual on and off the court. Byron Scott stated Rodman was playing a character, and anything he did was planned much before. He added, “Dennis is extremely intelligent person. Marrying himself, doing the sh*t with Madonna, all that sh*t, people were like ‘Oh, that boy crazy!’ 

The 5x NBA champion was the talk of the town after he got involved with music icon Madonna and did other bizarre stuff like marrying himself. He also was not afraid to embrace his feminine side as he was seen in a wedding dress once. The NBA will certainly remember Rodman as one of the most intriguing personalities of all time.
