Michael Jeffrey Jordan (born February 17, 1963) is an American retired professional basketball
player and active businessman. His biography on the National Basketball Association (NBA) website
states, “By acclamation, Michael Jordan is the greatest basketball player of all time.” Jordan
was one of the most effectively marketed athletes of his generation, and was instrumental in
popularizing the NBA around the world in the 1980s and 1990s.
After a stand-out career at the University of North Carolina, Jordan joined the NBA’s Chicago
Bulls in 1984. He quickly emerged as one of the stars of the league, entertaining crowds with
his prolific scoring. His leaping ability, illustrated by performing slam dunks from the free
throw line at Slam Dunk Contests, earned him the nicknames “Air Jordan” and “His Airness”.
He also gained a reputation as one of the best defensive players in basketball. In 1991, he won
his first NBA championship with the Bulls, and followed that achievement with titles in 1992 and
1993, securing a “three-peat”. Though Jordan abruptly left the NBA at the beginning of the
1993-94 NBA season to pursue a career in baseball, he rejoined the Bulls in 1995 and led them
to three additional championships (1996, 1997, and 1998) as well as an NBA-record 72 regular-season
wins in the 1995–96 season. Jordan retired for a second time in 1999, but he returned for
two more NBA seasons in 2001 as a member of the Washington Wizards.
Jordan’s individual accolades and accomplishments include five MVP awards, ten All-NBA First
Team designations, nine All-Defensive First Team honors, fourteen NBA All-Star Game appearances
and three All-Star MVP, ten scoring titles, three steals titles, six NBA Finals MVP awards, and
the 1988 NBA Defensive Player of the Year Award. He holds the NBA record for highest career
regular season scoring average with 30.12 points per game, as well as averaging a record 33.4
points per game in the playoffs. In 1999, he was named the greatest North American athlete of
the 20th century by ESPN, and was second to Babe Ruth on the Associated Press’s list of athletes
of the century. He will be eligible for induction into the Basketball Hall of Fame in 2009.
Jordan is also noted for his product endorsements. He fueled the success of Nike’s Air Jordan
sneakers, which were introduced in 1985 and remain popular today. Jordan also starred in the
1996 feature film Space Jam. He is currently a part-owner and Managing Member of Basketball
Operations of the Charlotte Bobcats in North Carolina.
