Two months after settling an antitrust lawsuit against NASCAR, Michael Jordan won his first Daytona 500 as a team owner, and on his birthday, no less.

A basketball icon and NASCAR team owner, Michael Jordan can add one more incredible accomplishment to his sports career: a Daytona 500 win.

As far as jersey numbers go, Michael Jordan is most known for his famous 23. Then there's 45, the post-baseball digits that MJ wore with the Chicago Bulls. But least known among his NBA jersey numbers is a one-night special: 12. On Feb. 14, 1990, Michael wore 12, and he didn't even have his name on his back.

The photo was taken on Feb. 14, 1990, when the Chicago Bulls faced off against the Magic in Orlando. Jordan’s No. 23 jersey was stolen from the Bulls’ locker room before the game. As unthinkable as it is today, Chicago didn’t have a spare No. 23 jersey on hand.

Shaquille O'Neal isn't interested in hearing any excuses for Michael Jordan losing to his Orlando Magic in the 1995 NBA playoffs.

Fred VanVleet opens up about the "mystical" experience of being in the same room as Michael Jordan during the NBA 75 ceremony, revealing how MJ’s presence left even the league's greatest legends starstruck.
