“I Partied Only Once With Dennis Rodman”: Toni Kukoc Says “You Need A 10 Days Recovery Period Afterward” After Ragers With ‘The Worm’

Dennis Rodman was known for his partying nature with the Chicago Bulls, but that lifestyle wasn’t Toni Kukoc’s cup of tea.

Rodman’s partying was a big source of drama during the Chicago Bulls dynasty as ‘The Last Dance’ often talked about how Rodman would disappear for several days at a time and come back during his own time.

Toni Kukoc was another big factor during the Bulls’ run, but he didn’t really gel with Rodman’s partying lifestyle as the recovery period was too much for him.

Toni Kukoc Only Partied Once With Dennis Rodman Before Calling It Quits

Rodman was definitely not your everyday player. He braided his hair differently almost everyday, at least it seemed like it, colored his hair vibrantly, and he engaged in some of the craziest parties.

Of course, Rodman had to have some of his Bulls teammates around for some of these, and once Toni Kukoc decided to take Rodman up on his offer. That party was Kukoc’s first and last with Rodman.

Rodman’s entire persona was built around being a ‘free-spirit’, living his life the way he wanted to and partying hard whenever he could. However, on the court, it was a completely different story. Rodman goes down in NBA history as one of the best rebounders and defenders of all time.

His physicality brought a different edge to the Chicago Bulls, a piece they definitely needed in their second three-peat bid.

Meanwhile, Toni Kukoc embodied the sharpshooting, versatile forward role for the Bulls. Together, Kukoc and Rodman formed integral parts of the Bulls’ dynasty, winning three titles together.
