Jordan part of NBC coverage to give back to the game

Michael Jordan has made his debut as a special contributor to NBC Sports’ return to NBA broadcasting. Speaking with Mike Tirico on Tuesday, Jordan said he wants to give back to basketball while prioritizing family time. He emphasized his obligation to share messages of success and dedication. NBC’s broadcast blended past and present, featuring the return of the iconic “Roundball Rock” theme and the voice of the late Jim Fagan. Jordan, now 62, still feels competitive but rarely plays basketball. He shared a recent experience of shooting a free throw for kids, which made him nervous but ended with a successful shot.
