Jeff Green, for instance, has played with:
Kevin Durant, James Harden, Russell Westbrook, Ray Allen, Kevin Garnett, Paul Pierce, Shaq, Jermaine O'Neal, Rajon Rondo, Jason Terry, Marc Gasol, Mike Conley, ZBO, Chris Paul, Blake Griffin, Lebron James, Dwayne Wade, Derrick Rose, Kevin Love, Bradley Beal, Dwight Howard, Rudy Gobert, Donovan Mitchell, Lamarcus Aldrige, Kyrie Irving, and the Joker.
Many of these players he's played with more than once as well, on different teams.
Can any other player of there match his list of legends/all stars? Oh the stories he'll tell his grandchildren...
He's even racked up time as a team mate with many of NBA history's "funny legends" such as darko, and delonte west.

Ish Smith bounced around a bunch, but I doubt he's played with as many hall of famers(or future hall of famers) as Jeff Green tho.

Not going to do the work, but Horry probably has a good list since he was part of 3 legendary teams and 1 random Suns season that had KJ, Kidd and Nash.

Shaq probably doesn't count because of his own legendary status, but even as he aged out as role player he had some pretty incredible teammates.

I suspect that a lot of journeymen will fill this thread, and it will be a lot more than people think. When some players have played on 10+ teams: -
12 teams - Chucky Brown, Jim Jackson, Tony Massenburg, Joe Smith
11 teams - Ish Smith, Anthony Tolliver, Kevin Ollie
10 teams - Trevor Ariza, Jeff Green
However, Kevin Ollie might take the cake for the NBA player with the most jerseys due to playing for so many teams. While Ollie played for "just" 11 teams, he had two different stints with the Orlando Magic, three different stints with the Philadelphia 76ers and played for the SEA/OKC franchise both in Seattle (2003) and in OKC (2009-10). All in all, Ollie moved from one NBA team to another 15 times during his career from 1997-2010 and he collected 15 different jerseys along the way.

This guy doesn’t really compete with the guys y’all have named but for only playing for 5 franchises, Dennis Rodman stacked them up pretty good.
Pistons - Isiah, Dumars, Dantley, Aguirre
Bulls - Jordan, Pippen, Kukoc, Robert Parish
Lakers -Shaq, Kobe, Glen Rice, Eddie Jones
Spurs - Robinson, Sean Elliot, Dale Ellis, Moses Malone!
Mavs - Dirk, Nash, Finley

Robert Horry comes to mind. Can't think of a more right place right time guy.
Boris Diaw probably wishes he had his team selection skills and fortune, he'd be a HOFer (i jest)

Most of the guys mentioned so far (Horry, Rodman, Ariza, Jefferson) have one, or more, rings and multiple deep playoff runs. Jeff Green has zero rings and has only made it past the second round once. I think if I was a "legend" and hoping to win a championship I'd bypass Green just based on that.

Scott Williams played with MJ and LeBron. I think I once read that he's the only player in NBA history who played with both of them. Also played with Dirk and Nash in Dallas, Amar'e, Marion and Penny in Phoenix, Ray Allen in Milwaukee, Iverson in Philly, Tim Hardaway in Denver and of course Scottie in Chicago.
Jordan
LeBron
Dirk
Pippen
Ray Allen
Iverson
Nash
Penny Hardaway
Tim Hardaway
Amar'e
Marion

I know you're just joking, but imo Diaw without his Zion Williamson eating habits would have had a shot at the HOF
