Michael Jeffrey Jordan (born February 17, 1963) is a former American professional basketball player and an businessman. His biography on the National Basketball Association (NBA) website says, “By acclamation, Michael Jordan is the greatest basketball player of all time.” Michael Jordan was one of the most successfully marketed athletes of his era and was instrumental in popularizing the American around the world in the 1980s and 1990s.

Following a standout career at UNC, where he led the Tar Heels to a National Title in 1982, Jordan joined the National Basketball Association’s Chicago Bulls in 1984. He swiftly blossomed as a league star, compelling crowds with his abundant scoring. His jumping capability, illustrated by delivering slam dunks from the free throw line in slam dunk competitions, garnered him the nicknames “Air Jordan” and “His Airness”. He also received a reputation for being one of the finest defensive players in basketball. In 1991, he won his first NBA trophy with the Bulls, and followed that achievement with championships in 1992 and 1993, securing a “three-peat”. Although MJ abruptly retired from basketball 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 NBA season. Michael Jordan 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.
