Phillip Riles more so the physique. Rodgers was very versatile as well as a great athlete. Zion is more so a great athlete and banger. But i see what your saying. Rodgers was under rated.

Man, back in the 90's, Rodney Rogers and Anthony Mason (R.I.P.) had that massive built and quickness to be linebackers in the NFL. Sometimes it felt like they were playing the wrong profession sports career. Just saying, no disrespect to either man, as they both had memorable careers in the NBA. Much love to both men, 100%!!

I remember when this was first reported. I took everything in my to not cry after watching this. Rodney...you're a strong man.

I worked for several years at a marina in NC and every year Rodney would stop in taking a break from riding his jet skis and after seeing him over the years we kinda got to know one another a little and I tell you what, the man was as down to earth as you are....always smiling and joking....never forget those days....

We love you Rodney. I went through alot recently and felt like life was over. I was questioning my mistakes every day but God is good. This is only temporary fam and only family matters

Dang this is sad. But very encouraging. It's a teaching moment to be grateful for things we take for granted. I'm sure he'd give all the money he has and have made for the activities of his limbs

He use to make his presence known for sure bless him and his queen
