The day Daugherty suggested Norwood lay out driving Jordan during pickup game

Posted Jul 3, 2026
Michael Norwood knew not to get in Michael Jordan’s way when Jordan had a breakaway. Norwood, a former UNC team captain who played in the 1980s, had the perfect view during a summer pickup game when Jordan delivered his rock-the-cradle dunk. "I get out of the way," Norwood said. Brad Daugherty didn’t think that was the proper response. (Tar Heel Tribune)
