My parents wanted to name me Karim Hill. My aunt always liked the name Dule, from this actor Keir Dullea, who was in '2001: Space Odyssey.' That's how I got the name Karim Dule Hill. Growing up, I never liked the name Karim because people would ask me, 'Could you dunk like Kareem Abdul Jabbar?'
I think the greatest player I've ever played against was Magic Johnson. Next, was Larry Bird. Then, Kareem Abdul-Jabbar.
Without question, no hesitation, Kareem Abdul-Jabbar was the best player I ever played against.
I grew up in L.A. in the '80s, and the Lakers were the biggest thing to ever hit the world at that time.
My role models were all men. I grew up - I was a big 1980s Laker fan: you know, the years of Worthy, Magic Johnson, Kareem Abdul Jabbar, and, you know, eight-foot-tall men that I could never emulate, and then these big 300-pound football players.
Michael Jordan and Kareem Abdul-Jabbar were the two guys with unstoppable moves.
Me and Penny are going to be the Kareem and Magic of the '90s.
On the best tactic when playing alongside Kareem Abdul-Jabbar- Just give him the ball.
