Streetbeat: Now that the Olympics are over, what Olympian or professional athlete would you like to compete against or play one-on-one?

Loretta A. Ragsdell asks:

Jared Hill

“I’d like to play Derrick Rose, because he is the best player in the NBA.”

Jaylen Isaccs

“I’d play one-on-one with Kobe Bryant, because he is my favorite basketball player.”

‘James Jackson

“I’d complete against Michael Jordan, although I know I wouldn’t win. What would be fun about it is Michael is a professional athlete, and I’d learn a lot.”

Kenneth Doss

“I would compete one-on-one against my favorite athlete. It would be Kareem Abdul-Jabbar. I would try to block that fabulous sky hook he has.”

Omari Norman

“I’d like to play LeBron James, because he’s one of the best players and I think I can take him. He’s pretty tall, but I’m pretty tall too. I’d like to play him at the Bulls’ stadium.”

Paris Dorsey

“Wilma Rudolph, because in 1964 she became the first black and American woman to win in a single Olympic event, three gold medals for track. That’s my thing. That’s who I’d compete against, because she was fast, and I think I can take her.”
