Another masterful performance from Stephen Curry has the Warriors superstar in rarefied NBA air: The future Hall of Famer is set to pass Michael Jordan for a rather remarkable scoring record.

In an exclusive appearance Tuesday on NBC & Peacock, airing at halftime of Oklahoma City Thunder vs. Houston Rockets, Michael Jordan spoke with Mike Tirico about how he spends his time post-retirement, why he felt it was important to launch his “MJ: Insights To Excellence” series … and the unlikely time he felt pressure attempting a free throw.

Michael Jordan made his debut as a special contributor to NBC Sports’ return to NBA broadcasting on Tuesday night, saying he’s doing so as a way to give back to basketball.

Jordan's post-retirement life has included a diminishing amount of basketball as he places an emphasis on spending time with family. In fact, he said he has not "picked up a ball in years." The last time the Chicago Bulls legend took a shot was, in true Jordan fashion, at a golf tournament.

Maybe it was the nostalgia kicking in, but Tuesday felt bigger than usual for the NBA as it returned to NBC for the first time since 2002.

NASCAR and two of its teams returned to court Thursday after two failed days of mediation and resumed their bitter antitrust fight with a hearing that included team owner Michael Jordan laughing in disbelief at some of the testimony as the two sides hurtle toward a trial.

Matas Buzelis's season opening performance with the Bulls was so good that he did something His Airiness didn't achieve.

If there's a person credible enough to comment on the GOAT discussion, it's Hakeem. After all, he was picked first in the 1984 draft, the same class as Jordan's. This means he had a first-row seat to witness MJ's greatness from the first time he set foot in the NBA to his very last game in the league.
