Who is Michael Jordan?


Michael Jordan (not to be confused with Michael B Jordan, the actor), is widely considered the best basketball player of all time. He played college basketball at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill and then was drafted by the Chicago Bulls of the NBA. In the 1990s, Jordan’s Bulls teams won six championships, interrupted by his temporary retirement, during which he played professional baseball. After retiring from basketball, Jordan became a co-owner of the Charlotte Bobcats. Early in his basketball career, Jordan signed an unprecedented sponsorship deal with Nike to make his own branded “Air Jordan” high-top shoes, the largest of a series of high profile endorsements that has enabled him to become a billionaire.
