Michael Jordan holds the NBA record for career regular season scoring average at 30.1 points per game, and the career playoff scoring average record at 33.4 points per game. Both remain all-time records.
Jordan announced his first retirement on the 6th of October 1993, citing a loss of desire to play. He later said that the murder of his father, James R. Jordan Sr., on the 23rd of July 1993, contributed to his decision, and that physical and mental exhaustion from basketball and superstardom also played a role.
Jordan won six NBA championships with the Chicago Bulls, in 1991, 1992, 1993, 1996, 1997, and 1998. He was named NBA Finals MVP in each of those six appearances, an all-time record.
Jordan played for the Birmingham Barons, the Double-A minor league affiliate of the Chicago White Sox, in 1994. He batted .202 with three home runs and 30 stolen bases. He also played in the 1994 Arizona Fall League, batting .252.
Jordan has a net worth of $4.3 billion, making him the wealthiest athlete of all time. He became the first billionaire player in NBA history in 2014. His wealth stems from endorsements, his Jordan Brand partnership with Nike, and ownership stakes in businesses including the Charlotte Hornets, which he sold his majority stake in for approximately $3 billion in 2023.
Jordan was inducted into the Naismith Memorial Basketball Hall of Fame twice: individually in 2009, and in 2010 as a member of the 1992 United States men's Olympic basketball team known as the Dream Team.
