1963年~
Jordan, Michael (Jeffrey)
U.S. basketball player, considered the greatest all-around player in basketball history. Born in Brooklyn, N.Y., he grew up in North Carolina and attended the University of North Carolina, where as a freshman he scored the winning basket in the NCAA tournament championship game. Drafted by the Chicago Bulls in 1984, he made his professional debut with the team later that year. As a Bull he won 10 scoring titles and 5 Most Valuable Player awards. In 1987 he became the second player (after Wilt Chamberlain) to score 3,000 points in a single season. Nicknamed “Air Jordan” for his extraordinary leaping ability and the acrobatic maneuvers with which he evaded defenders while approaching the basket, he led the Bulls to six championships (1991-93, 1996-98) and led the 1984 and 1992 U.S. Olympic basketball teams to gold medals. He retired briefly in 1993, hoping to play professional baseball, but returned to play with the Bulls from 1995 until his retirement in 1999, by which time he was the most famous athlete in America and an international icon. In 2000 he bought a share of the NBA Washington Wizards and was later appointed president of basketball operations for the club. Before the start of the 2001-02 season, however, Jordan announced that he was returning to professional play as a member of the Wizards, and he renounced his ownership and management positions with the team.
