Michael Jordan's father built UNC's Roy Williams a wood-burning stove during recruitment
Posted May 7, 2020
"The Last Dance" director Jason Hehir told a story of the best interview that had to be left out of the 10-part series. Hehir said Roy Williams told him that Michael Jordan's late father, James Jordan, was such a great builder and man of class that he made a wood-burning stove from scratch and delivered it to Williams' home as a gift – poised to install it for free.
