Michael Jordan was going to be a star no matter his sneaker deal.
The problem was that no one knew he was going to be that big of a star.
On the Last Dance last night we hear Jordan say he was an adidas guy and even wanted to go to Converse, but they didn’t think much of him.
NIKE wasn’t that big back then, but thanks to his mom and dad he got on the plane and listened to their pitch.
The rest is history.
