Michael was born in New York on February 17, 1963. The parents of the future sports star were ordinary people of no basketball height. Five children were brought up in the family: Michael's older brothers, Larry and James Jr., older sister Deloris and younger sister Roslyn. As a child, Michael was fond of baseball and already at the age of 12 with the school team he got to the finals of the minor league championship.
Childhood and youth

He was later recognized as the champion of the state of North Carolina, where his family moved. Another achievement in baseball was the recognition of Jordan as the most valuable player. Then it was time for Michael to get involved in basketball. The father even built a basketball court for the youngest son in the backyard of their house.
The height of a novice basketball player at the age of 15 reached 175 centimeters, so he honed the jump. Later , the athlete reached a height of 198 cm with a weight of 98 kg . Michael had high speed and trained hard. But these qualities were not enough to become a high school team player. The failure upset the guy, and he decided to prove to the coach that he was wrong. Michael gave his all at the games, getting 28 points in each match.

At the same time, he was engaged in baseball, athletics, and got into the school's American football team. Michael's persistence brought results. In the 11th grade, he finally got into the school basketball team, in which his older brother, number 45, was already playing. Michael chose the number 23, explaining that he would try to become as good a player as Larry, or at least half. Jordan remained faithful to this number until the end of his career. Success spurred the ambitious boy, and he continued to work on himself. In the summer of 1980, Michael got into training at the University of North Carolina. He made such an indelible impression on the coaches that he was invited to study. In 1981, he became a student at this university.

Sport
In the first three seasons, Jordan rose to the Naismith Award. The young player also took part in the Pan American Games, showing the best results in the national team. After joining the national team, he participated in the 1984 Summer Olympics, where he showed the highest results. After not finishing a year, Jordan dropped out of university to participate in the NBA draft.

He was chosen by the Chicago Bulls. However, the lack of discipline in the team and the low level of equipment disappointed the guy. Despite such conditions, he continued intensive training and joined the starting five, showing high results of 28 points per game. Michael was loved by the audience even from the rival side. Just a month into his professional career, Jordan landed on the cover of Sports Illustrated sports magazine with the ambitious caption "A Star is Born." 1984 was the time of the first advertising contract with Nike. For him, Air Jordan sneakers were released in the traditional colors of the Chicago Bulls club – black and red.

▪The NBA has banned the use of these shoes for the aggressiveness of the range and the lack of white color. However, Jordan continued to go out on the field in these sneakers, and the Nike management paid fines of $ 5 thousand, using this fact to advertise their product. The team's debutant became a member of the starting five in the NBA All-Star Game. This fact provoked the discontent of the veterans of the League. As a result, the players refused to give passes to Jordan. And even under such pressure, he managed to win the title of the best newcomer of the Association in the finals of the regular season. At the same time, he was declared the third most effective in the NBA and got into the second five best players in the NBA. Thanks to Michael, the team managed to reach the playoffs for the first time in the last 3 years.

Personal life
The personal life of the basketball player proceeded violently because of the many hobbies of the athlete. Michael has always been considered a favorite of women.

The Jordans have three children: two sons, Jeffrey Michael and Marcus James, and a daughter, Jasmine. In early 2002, Juanita Jordan announced that she had filed for divorce.

She called irreconcilable contradictions the basis, but the couple managed to come to an agreement and did not divorce. But in 2006 it became known that Michael has a secret mistress, whom he paid for silence. The court rejected Karla Kneifel's claim for compensation in the amount of $ 5 million. Jordan allegedly promised her this money for the fact that she did not report her pregnancy from him in 1991.
The DNA analysis proved that the former athlete was not the father of the child. However, this finally spoiled the relationship of the Jordans, and at the end of the year they divorced by mutual consent. At the same time, Juanita received compensation in the amount of $ 168 million, which was a record at that time among famous people. Five years later, Michael proposed to a 32-year-old Cuban model.
