Did Dean Smith Hold Michael Jordan Back?
Posted Jun 1, 2023
Who is the last person to hold Michael Jordan to fewer than 20 points per game? The answer: Dean Smith. Get it? But is this really the case? Jordan averaged 17.7 points per game in his three seasons (1982-84) at UNC. Usually, those who quote this line point out Jordan properly learned the game under Smith, setting the foundation for his NBA success.
