Here’s a lil MJ lesson of the day for you in case you didn’t know! Check out some classic Michael Jordan footage during the game where he was forced to compete wearing the number “12”. Watch the video & find out why he was wearing #12 after the jump…
USA Today Explains:
On Valentine’s Day in 1990, someone snuck into the Bulls locker room about 90 minutes before the team’s tip off against the Magic and brazenly swiped the NBA legend’s game jersey out of his locker. After searching the arena and many of its employees, the jersey wasn’t recovered.
“That has never happened to me before,” Jordan told the Orlando Sentinel at the time. ”It’s pretty irritating because you’re accustomed to certain things and you don’t like to have things misplaced.”
It’s rumored that Jordan refused to sign autographs in Orlando after the incident, which is surprising, since he’s never shown any indication of being someone who holds a grudge.
