Michael Jordan is the greatest basketball player of all time. As a result, he has the respect of his peers and fans alike.
At last year’s NBA All-Star Game, the league decided to honor the 75 best players in history. Everyone knew that Jordan would get acknowledged, but many thought he wouldn’t attend. He had a NASCAR event the same day.
Fortunately, Jordan’s other obligation was resolved and he was able to speed back to the All-Star Game – leading to a lot of great photos with various players both past and present.
One in particular continues to go viral online every other week, featuring Mary J. Blige. It largely speaks for itself:

Obviously it’s all in good fun there.
Jordan has been in the headlines quite a bit in recent weeks. Between Karl Malone revealing who he believes is truly the most talented NBA player of all time and Magic Johnson revealing who the true GOAT is – it has been one thing after another.
The photos speak for themselves. https://t.co/7e70pGHEzj

What will Jordan ultimately go viral for next?
Time will tell.
