Do you know the name of this basketball player?

Question

I was at a meeting today and the speaker there was trying to give some encouraging words. He mentioned "one of the best basketball players to have ever lived" who "could barely jump two inches off the ground" and "ran slower than" him. I can't remember the name but I would like to do some research on him. Thank you
