Chicago Bulls legend and Charlotte Hornets team owner Michael Jordan celebrated his 58th birthday this week.
Although Jordan has been a part of many successful ventures, one lesser known one he is involved in is Cincoro Tequila.
Back in 2019, he, Jeanie Buss of the Los Angeles Lakers, Wes Edens of the Milwaukee Bucs, and Wyc Grousbeck of the Boston Celtics joined forces to launch the upstart alcohol brand.
Although it is unclear how much success the group has enjoyed as a result of this project, clearly it has brought them all very close together.
Because of that, Buss sent a very special flirty message to Jordan in commemoration of his birthday.

“How do you keep getting hotter??” she openly wondered.
Jordan’s ability to woo the ladies, even ones as accomplished as Buss, should come as no surprise. He gave golfer Tiger Woods a magic six-word pick-up line that completely changed the way he dealt with women, so clearly he’s an expert in that regard.

Conversations about his smoking hot good looks notwithstanding, as Jordan continues to get older and older, folks will continue to be forced to reevaluate where the one-time GOAT stands in relation to modern day NBA players from a legacy standpoint.
The most obvious contender to Jordan’s GOAT throne is LeBron James – something that has been the case for many years. That said, it’s still pretty well regarded that he reigns supreme over all challengers.

Houston Rockets legend Hakeem Olajuwon famously said that the battle between Jordan and James isn’t even close. Everyone from Floyd Mayweather Jr. to former President Donald Trump has echoed that sentiment in some capacity.
By most existing metrics, Jordan was and is the best to ever play the game. Will the same hold true by the time his 59th birthday rolls around? Time will tell.
