Many people think Michael Jordan was the greatest
basketball player ever. He led the Chicago Bulls to six National Basketball
Association (NBA) championships. He earned the nickname “Air Jordan” because he
often seemed to defy gravity on leaps toward the basket. Fans adored his
smiling face and his determination to succeed. During his playing career,
Michael Jordan became the most famous athlete in the world.
EARLY LIFE
Michael Jordan was born on February 17, 1963, in
Brooklyn, New York. His family later moved to Wilmington, North Carolina.
Young Michael’s best sport was baseball. He didn’t
make his high school basketball team as a sophomore. Later, he played well
enough to be noticed by Coach Dean Smith at the University of North Carolina
(UNC). Jordan won a scholarship to UNC.
As a freshman at UNC, Jordan scored the winning
basket in the 1982 national college tournament championship game. He played two
more seasons at UNC. He also played for the United States team in the 1984
Olympic Games.
In 1984, Jordan entered the NBA player draft. He
was chosen by the Chicago Bulls.
NBA LEGEND
Jordan was a star from his first season with
the Bulls. He was a scoring machine. The Bulls were not one of the NBA’s better
teams, but they gradually improved. They made the NBA playoffs in their first
five seasons with Jordan. However, they failed to make the NBA championship
finals.
In 1989, Phil Jackson became the Bulls’ head coach.
Under Jackson, Jordan became more of a team player, although he remained the
NBA’s leading scorer. Jordan developed an incredible “court sense.” He knew
where every player was on the basketball court, and what was the best play for
the circumstances. In the 1990-1991 season, the Bulls won their first of three
straight NBA championships.
In 1993, Jordan retired from basketball. He tried
to make it in professional baseball, but he had little success. He rejoined the
Bulls in 1995. In the 1995-1996 season, the Bulls started another run of three
straight championships.
Jordan retired for a second time in 1998. He
became part owner of the NBA’s Washington Wizards. The Wizards were not a good
team. Jordan grew frustrated watching them lose. So in 2001, he came out of
retirement again and played two seasons with the Wizards.
JORDAN’S RECORD
Jordan retired for good in 2003. He was third on
the all-time NBA scoring list, with 32,292 points. He had the highest scoring
average in league history: he scored an average of 30.1 points per game during
his career. He led the NBA in scoring a record ten times. He won five NBA most
valuable player awards. In addition, Jordan created millions of new fans for
professional basketball around the world.
