The iconic Chicago Bulls star, Michael Jordan, who secured six NBA championships, finally clarified which title was the most special to him.
Jordan, 61, is renowned as one of the greatest athletes in history, with an illustrious NBA career that crowned him a six-time NBA champion with the Bulls.
Jordan’s dominance on the court earned him six NBA Finals MVP titles and five overall MVP awards during his tenure with the Bulls and the Washington Wizards.
His influence extended beyond basketball, forming a legendary partnership with Nike for the Air Jordan sneakers, one of the world’s most iconic sneaker brands. He also appeared in the 1996 film “Space Jam” and was the star of the Emmy-winning documentary series “The Last Dance” on Netflix in 2020.
Jordan’s legacy is built on his basketball achievements, playing over 1,200 games and setting points-per-game records.
The debate over which of Jordan’s six championship-winning Bulls teams was the best has been long-standing, but Jordan himself ended the discussion in a resurfaced TikTok interview. He declared the 1996 team, which won 72 games, as his favorite, emphasizing teamwork and challenging others to prove a better team existed.
“People always debated who’s the greatest player of all time? Dumb question. It should be who’s the greatest team of all time. There are so many teams to choose from… And my favorite, the ’96 Chicago Bulls, 72 wins, tough to beat that. You think there’s someone else? Prove it,” Jordan said.
