Early Life
Michael Jeffrey Jordan was born under the zodiac sign of Aquarius on the 17th February 1963, in New York City’s borough of Brooklyn, the fourth of five children of banker Deloris and mechanic James R. Jordan Sr.
His siblings include two older brothers Larry and James R. Jordan Jr., an older sister Deloris and a younger one named Roslyn. With the increasing crime rate on the streets of Brooklyn in the early 1960s, while he was still in his infancy the family moved to Wilmington, North Carolina, where he spent the majority of his childhood, and matriculated from Emsley A. Laney High School. As a young basketball prospect playing for his school’s varsity team, Michael was offered numerous basketball scholarships from a variety of colleges, before he chose to attend the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, from which he graduated in 1986 with a Bachelor of Arts degree, majoring in cultural geography.
His father was murdered in July 1993 while resting on US Highway 74 in his Lexus SC400, which was a gift from Michael, when two thugs appeared, shot him to death and took the car. They were later identified as Daniel Andre Green and Larry Martin Demery and sentenced for life in jail.
Career
Michael Jordan‘s professional basketball career began in 1984 when he was drafted as the pick No.3 overall by the National Basketball Association’s (NBA) Chicago Bulls. Playing as the shooting guard, he quickly proved his playing qualities, coming out as a genuine NBA star, gaining reputation for his prolific scoring skills, leaping ability and amazing slam dunks as well as on-point defensive efforts.
All these ‘perks’ earned him huge popularity among the fans and colleagues as well, who crowned him with the nickname – Air Jordan. Between 1991 and 1993, he won three consecutive NBA Championship titles with the Bulls, earning his first ‘three-peat’ before abruptly retiring for the 1993/94 season, during which he tried his luck in Minor League Baseball, playing for the Birmingham Barons.
However, in March 1995 Jordan returned to the Chicago Bulls, with which he then won his second ‘three-peat’ titles in 1996, ‘97 and ‘98.
In January 1999 he announced his retirement, but less than a year later he returned to the NBA, this time as the president of the Washington Wizards, before in September 2001 signing a playing contract with the Wizards, and returning to the court for two more seasons, before finally retiring in 2003.
During his 15-seasons-long tenure in the league, Michael Jordan‘s name and his iconic jersey No. 23 had been written into the history of the NBA multiple times. His professional portfolio includes six NBA Championship rings, six NBA Finals MVP and five NBA Season’s Most Valuable Player accolades as well as 14 NBA All-Star games.
Jordan played a total of 1,072 games, averaging 30.1 points per game with a total of 32,292 points which is currently the fifth best in the history of the associaiton.
Additionally, with the US national basketball team Michael won two Olympic gold medals, including the 1984 Los Angeles Olympics, and the 1992 Games in Barcelona, Spain. He also won the gold medal at the 1983 Pan American Games in Caracas, Venezuela, and the 1992 FIBA Americas Championship. Since February 2010, Michael Jordan is the majority owner of the NBA’s Charlotte Hornets.
Personal Life
Between September 1989 and December 2006, Michael was married to Juanita Vanoy with whom he welcomed three children already mentioned above. In late 2011 he became engaged to his long-term girlfriend Yvette Prieto, who he married two years later. Their wedding ceremony took place on the 27th April 2013, at the Episcopal Church Bethesda-by-the-Sea, in Palm Beach, Florida.
Net Worth
Being still a young child without any professional achievements so far, the wealth of Victoria Jordan as of early 2020 it’s known.
However, taking into consideration that her father Michael is the highest-paid athlete of all time with an accumulated net worth revolving around quite an impressive sum of $1.9 billion, it can be concluded that she lives a rather lavish lifestyle. It has all been acquired through Jordan’s successful professional basketball career abundant with accolades, his business ventures as well as through marketing endorsements with the leading brands such as Nike, Gatorade, Coca Cola, Chevrolet and McDonald’s to name a few.
