If you ask people "who is the most famous basketball player of all times?" what will they say?
Please do not answer who you think is the best player, that is irrelevant (and obviously it's Michael Jordan).

Its NIP-04
Obviously
Most likely they would think about their contemporary basked player figure that is all over the place.
For me was MJ, kids nowadays would probably think about Lebron James or some other.
Then, it all comes down to make a PMV video with “In the End” by linkin park, making Michael and Lebron fight to see how’s the real shit
Lebaron James
Michael Jordan. Dude created Nike (idc that running shoe company was going to flop without him)
I think michael jordan is the best and the most famous of all time 😂
mj is both. I can't think of anyone else thst has mass appeal to the largest audience whether a ball fan or not. whether young or old.
MJ spans different generations.
Dr J, Magic, Kareem was Boomer's prime time...
MJ is Gen X/Milennials.
Lebron/Steph is Milennials/Gen Z...
So it's MJ.
Esp. once you factor in Space Jam, Nike Air Jordan's, his documentary etc.
Tougher question would be Football/Soccer player.
Other the Alan Turing who is the best cryptographer is all time. 🤣🫡
MJ > Kobe > Lebron > Shaq
Hawthorne Wingo
Larry Bird?
Is this an age thing?
Schelling. He played point.
"All time" claims often really mean "in living memory."
Take the Beatles being called the most famous band ever. Few under 20 feel that way now, and their descendants likely won't either.
Similarly, in the future, only basketball history buffs will care about Michael Jordan, much like how Wilt Chamberlain is remembered today.
Michael Jordan, no question - he was in Space Jam! + Air Jordan’s + he played baseball!
(I feel confident in this answer as a millennial, other generations might be wrong).
