Career Accolades/Stats: 4-time All-Star, 2-time All-NBA, 2011 NBA Champion

Marion would have been an All-Star in any era. His versatility on both ends made him a particularly unique player. A great athlete with a rangy 6-foot-7 frame, Marion was often tasked with defending the opposing team’s best player. From 2001-08, Marion averaged 18.9 PPG, 10.3 RPG, 2.0 SPG, and 1.4 BPG while playing for the best offense in the league with the Phoenix Suns.

He solidified his place among the top players of his era in 2011 as a 32-year-old vet, starting all 21 playoff games for the eventual NBA Champion Dallas Mavericks. During that run, Marion defended the likes of Brandon Roy, Kobe Bryant, Kevin Durant, and LeBron James.
