He is hailed as one of the greatest players to play at the center position and, of course, one of the greatest basketball players in the sport’s history. The Nigerian-American represented the NBA side, Houston Rockets between 1984 and 2002, and then for the Toronto Raptors during the 2001-2002 season.
Hakeem was honored with an induction into the Naismith Memorial Basketball Hall of Fame in 2008 and the FIBA Hall of Fame in 2016. Talking about his personal life, he has been in a marital relationship with Dalia Asafi since 1996. Dalia was only 18 years old at that time.
Despite that, she took everything within her stride, supported her husband, and cared for the family. She is quite a reclusive individual. They have spent over two and a half decades together and continue to shower love on each other from time to time.
