The 76ers may be horrible this season, but this is could be considered a highlight. Lol. It’s not everyday you get a call from Michael Jordan! MJ recently reached out to 76ers point guard Tony Wroten to apologize. Wondering why? Hit the jump for details…
Via DelawareOnline:
Tony Wroten said he received an apology from Michael Jordan after one of the 76ers guard’s Nike basketball shoes fell apart during a loss against the Indiana Pacers on Friday in Philadelphia.
“It was more embarrassing than anything,” Wroten said Wednesday. “But things happen. I got an apology from Jordan. Yeah. … He called my agent.”
Wroten, who is known around the NBA for his vast shoe collection, made highlight reels for the wrong reason when the sole tore off the Air Jordan 10 “varsity red” sneaker on his right foot during a fourth-quarter drive to the basket. The shoes were first released in 2005.
