Former NBA All-Star Gilbert Arenas lambasted legendary center Hakeem Olajuwon for charging current players $50,000 to undergo lessons with him and learn his post-game.
During a recent No Chill Gil podcast episode, the 41-year-old ridiculed Olajuwon's private tutoring sessions, mockingly asking who wants to learn basketball moves from a player who did it in 1990.
Arenas claimed that the two-time NBA champion hasn't been good since the 1990s, and the moves that he is teaching are already outdated.
"Who [are] you going to do the moves on? [Victor] Wembanyama?," Arenas sarcastically asked.
The former Washington Wizard also added that nobody wants to learn the Hakeem Olajuwon skyhook, and Olajuwon should be ashamed of himself for charging young players $50,000.
Arenas also accused Olajuwon of trying to make his money back through young players while claiming that the 1994 NBA Most Valuable Player was not getting $50,000 per game when he entered the league in 1984.

Giannis Antetekounmpo plans to train with Hakeem Olajuwon
Arenas' comments came after Milwaukee Bucks star Giannis Antetokoumpo announced his intention to train with the Hall of Famer.
"This season, for the training camp, I have a trip that I'm going to go down to Houston and try to work out with Hakeem Olajuwon," the 2021 NBA Finals MVP said.
The 28-year-old added that he loves Olajuwon's game, and if he could take a few things from his game or learn anything from the time he's going to spend with him, it would be a blessing.
