Los Angeles Lakers point guard Quinn Cook recently revealed who he personally believes are the five best NBA players of all time.

Unsurprisingly, quite a few players who have worn Lakers uniforms made the list.

Cook, 27, included Michael Jordan, Kobe Bryant, LeBron James, Kevin Durant and Shaquille O’Neal on the illustrious list.

Although Cook doesn’t have a heavy role when he plays, he has certainly gotten to observe greatness from the bench.

The youngster played with Durant on the Golden State Warriors for two seasons. Now, Cook competes alongside James on the Lakers.

As a member of the Warriors, the journeyman witnessed James and Durant clash during the 2018 NBA Finals.

Although James and the Cleveland Cavaliers got decimated in a sweep, the four-time MVP averaged a ridiculous 34.0 points, 10.0 assists and 8.5 boards per game during the series.

Durant, on the other hand, put up 28.8 points, 10.8 rebounds and 7.5 assists in the 2018 Finals. As a result, he was named the 2018 Finals MVP.
