From Basketball to Pyongyang: Dennis Rodman’s life and career have been anything but ordinary

[post_page_title]The NBA: Defensive Player of the Year[/post_page_title]
Dennis Rodman won his first Defensive Player of the Year Award while he was still coming off the bench. In 1989-90, Rodman played in all 82 games for the Pistons, but started only 43 of them. That season he averaged 8.8 PPG, 9.7 rebounds and 0.7 blocks. He won his second title the following year, when he was finally a starter and averaged 12.5 rebounds a game. Ironically, it was the following season that he started averaging 18 rebounds a game and his rebound title streak began.
