Sixteen years ago Tuesday, Michael Jordan played his last game in the NBA. In that game Jordan had 15 points, four rebounds and four assists in 28 minutes of play for the Washington Wizards in a 107-87 road loss to the Philadelphia 76ers. “It’s time to move on, it’s easier to accept that because physically I know it and feel it,” Jordan told reporters.
