Professional basketball player, Olympic athlete, businessperson, actor. Born on February 17, 1963, in
Brooklyn, New York. Considered one of the best basketball players ever, Michael Jordan dominated
the sport from the mid-1980s to the late 1990s. He led the Chicago Bulls to six national
championships, and earned the National Basketball Association’s Most Valuable Player Award five
times. Growing up in Wilmington, North Carolina, Jordan developed a competitive edge at an early
age. He wanted to win every game he played. As his father James later noted, “What he does have is
a competition problem. He was born with that … the person he tries to outdo most of the time is
himself.” Jordan enrolled at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill in 1981 and soon became
an important member of the school’s basketball team. His team won the NCAA Division I
championships in 1982 with Jordan scoring the final basket needed to defeat Georgetown University.
He was also singled out as the NCAA College Player of the Year in 1983 and in 1984. During the
summer of 1984, Jordan made his first appearance at the Olympic Games as a member of the U.S.
Olympic basketball team. The team won the gold at the games that year, which were held in Los
Angeles. Jordan later helped the American team bring home the gold medal at the 1992 Olympic
Games, held in Barcelona, Spain.
Jordan left college after his junior year to join the NBA. Drafted by the Chicago Bulls, he soon proved
himself on the court. He helped the team make it to the playoffs and scored an average of 28.2 points
per game that season. For his efforts, Jordan received the NBA Rookie of the Year Award and was
selected for the All-Star Game. In 1985, he finished his bachelor’s degree in geography and continued
to play basketball professionally. While his second season was marred by injury, Jordan was breaking
new ground on the court during the 1986-1987 season. He became the first player since Wilt
Chamberlin to score more than 3,000 points in a single season. The following season, Jordan received
his first Most Valuable Player Award from NBA—an honor he would earn four more times in 1991,
1992, 1996, and 1998. By the late 1980s, the Chicago Bulls was quickly becoming a force to be
reckoned with, and Jordan was an instrumental part of the team’s success. The Bulls made it to the
Eastern Conference Finals in 1990 and won their first NBA championship the following year by
defeating the Los Angeles Lakers. A rising NBA superstar, Jordan became known for his power and
agility on the court as well as for his leadership abilities. He eventually landed several endorsement
deals with such companies as Nike, which further pushed him into the spotlight. In 1992, the Chicago
Bulls beat the Portland Trail Blazers to win their second NBA championship title. The team took their
third championship the following year, dominating in the basketball world. Jordan, however, had other
things on his mind. He lost his father, James, to an act of violence after the end of the 1992-93
season. Two teenagers shot James Jordan during an apparent robbery and were later convicted of the
crime. In a move that shocked many, Michael Jordan decided to retire from basketball to pursue
baseball. He played for a minor league team, the Birmingham Barons, as an outfielder for a year.
In March 1995, however, Jordan returned to the basketball court. He rejoined the Chicago Bulls and
eventually helped them win the championship against the Seattle Sonics in the 1995-96 season. That
same year, Jordan made a big splash in another arena—film—as the star of Space Jam (1996). The
film mixed live action and animation and paired Jordan with cartoon legends Bugs Bunny and Daffy
Duck on screen.Thefollowing season Jordan came back even stronger, averaging 30.4 points per game. Starting all
82 games that season, he helped the team finish the regular season with 72 wins and clinch a win in
the NBA Finals against the Utah Jazz. The two teams faced each other again for the championships in
1998, and Jordan helped the Bulls beat them for the second year in a row. Retiring after the 1997-98
season, Jordan did not stray from the sport for too long. He joined the Washington Wizards as a part
owner and as president of basketball operations. In the fall of 2001, Jordan relinquished these roles to
return the court once more. He played for the Wizards for two seasons before hanging up his jersey
for good in 2003.
In 2006, Jordan bought a share of the Charlotte Bobcats and joined the team’s executive ranks as its
managing member of basketball operations. He experienced some personal changes that same year,
ending his 17-year marriage to wife Juanita Vanoy. The couple divorced in December 2006. They had
three children together during the course of their marriage: Jeffrey, Marcus and Jasmine. The following
year, Michael Jordan made news—this time as the father of an up-and-coming college basketball
player. His eldest son, Jeffrey Jordan, made the team at the University of Illinois. Both Michael Jordan
and his ex-wife Juanita have supported their son and tried to help him deal with playing in the shadow
of a NBA legend. “He wants to be a basketball player, but he wants to do it on his own terms …The
thing that we have tried to tell Jeff is that you set your own expectations. By no means in this world
can you ever live up someone else’s expectations of who you are,” Michael Jordan said during an
appearance on the Today show. In April 2009, Jordan received one of basketball’s greatest honors:
He was inducted into the Naismith Memorial Basketball Hall of Fame.
Attending the induction ceremony was a bittersweet affair for Jordan because being at the event
meant “your basketball career is completely over,” he explained. While he may not be playing on the
court, Jordan remains active in his sport. He became the majority owner of the Charlotte Bobcats in
2010 and serves as the team’s chairman. And improving the team’s less-than-stellar record seems to
be Jordan’s number one priority these days. He told ESPN in November 2012 that “I don’t anticipate
getting out of this business. My competitive nature is I want to succeed. It’s always been said that
when I can’t find a way to do anything, I will find a way to do it.” Outside of his work with the Charlotte
Bobcats, Jordan is involved in a number of business ventures, including several restaurants. He also
does a lot for charity, including hosting the annual golf event known as the Michael Jordan Celebrity
Invitational.
