A few more I haven't seen mentioned yet:
Javale McGee was the "Shoe Change Emperor" after he changed his shoes 5 times during All-Star Weekend in 2012.
Ben Simmons: “The Chicken King” because he likes easy and opportunistic scoring, Chinese call this “stealing chicken”
Blake Griffin: “Short Fin,” teasing about his short arms.
Damon Stoudamire is “The Flying Rat” because of his Mighty Mouse tattoo.
Tracy McGrady: “Big Sleepy Devil”
Dwight Howard is “Mythical Monster”
