What star players would be the best at guarding themselves in game, and who would have the most trouble? (alien.top)

This got me thinking the other day, and since off-season is coming to an end soon, I might as well ask.

After some thought, offensive minded guards who are not great defensively like Trae, Lillard, Curry etc, would be the worst at guarding themselves imo.

The best at guarding themselves in game would be great two-way wings and centers imo.

Old school but Jordan was a super competitive and athletic defender.

It's 30 years later and that's exactly where my head went instantly. I still actively pay attention to NBA basketball, but no one sprang to mind first. Then I thought Shaq vs. Shaq. Then Paul George.

It would easily be the most entertaining of all these options. 89 Jordan vs himself would be straight electric.
