Michael Jordan has dropped a bombshell: he no longer plays basketball. Yes, that’s right! The man who took the NBA by storm has officially said goodbye to the court—at least for now. During a recent chat with Mike Tirico, he disclosed that aside from a single nerve-wracking free throw at a friend’s place, he hasn’t touched a basketball in years. And here we thought he’d be throwing down dunks until his golden years!
Now, that free throw wasn’t just a simple flick of the wrist. Nope! MJ recounted how he felt more nervous than ever while attempting it, surely putting to rest any thoughts that the legend might have lost his competitive edge. Yet, amidst all this, he admits he misses the game “like you wouldn’t believe.” Taking a step back from the hustle of shooting hoops seems like a wise move—no one wants to see him on crutches after a freak injury at age 62!
For now, the basketball world can still bask in his glory, as Jordan gears up for a bigger role with NBC. Imagine MJ sharing his veteran insights about the game he loves. What a treat! So, what do you think? If you were in his shoes, would you step away from the court or dive back in for one last adventure?
