Happy birthday to His Airness, Michael Jordan, who turns the big 6-0 on Friday.
What else can be said about arguably the greatest professional athlete who ever lived? Of course, Jordan’s on-court exploits are in his rearview and have been for decades. These days, besides being the owner of the Charlotte Hornets, Jordan has developed a philanthropic presence, something his critics wish he did more of when he was still playing. Recently, Jordan made news for making the largest donation — $10 million — to Make-A-Wish, an organization he’s been working with since 1989. “I can’t think of a better birthday gift than seeing others join me in supporting Make-A-Wish so that every child can experience the magic of having their wish come true,” he said.
Which brings us to today’s quiz of the day. Jordan received an early birthday gift when the NBA announced that the annual regular-season MVP Award will now be known as the Michael Jordan Trophy. So with that in mind, how many players to win the NBA MVP Award can you name in five minutes?
Good luck!
