Michael Jeffrey Jordan (born February 17, 1963) is a former NBA pro basketball player and an businessman. His biography on the National Basketball Association (NBA) website declares, “By acclamation, Michael Jordan is the greatest basketball player of all time.” Michael Jordan was one of the most effectively marketed athletes of his era and was instrumental in popularizing the NBA around the world between 1990 and 2000.
Immediately after a standout career at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, where he led the Tar Heels to a National Title in 1982, Jordan became a member of the National Basketball Association’s Chicago Bulls in 1984. He immediately came out as a league star, compelling crowds with his respected scoring. His dunking ability, illustrated by executing slam dunks from the free throw line in slam dunk contests, earned him the nicknames “Air Jordan” and “His Airness”. He also acquired a repute for being one of the top defensive players in basketball. In 1991, he got his first National Basketball Association trophy with the Bulls, and followed that achievement with championships in 1992 and 1993, securing a “three-peat”. Although Mike abruptly retired from basketball at the start 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 National Basketball Association season. Mike retired for a second time in 1999, but returned for two more National Basketball Association seasons in 2001 as a member of the Washington Wizards.
