High school, basketball greatness, golf course antics among memories of covering Michael Jordan

Posted May 18, 2020

The coaches loved his athleticism and potential, though his skills were still a bit raw. Jordan committed to Carolina barely 24 months after the trauma of getting cut at Laney. (WRAL Sports Fan)
