But when faced with two of the most consequential decisions of his life, Michael Jordan listened to his mother only once. Heeding her advice would end up making the basketball icon rich beyond his wildest dreams; spurning it potentially damaged his legacy. Both events were profiled in the latest episode of the blockbuster 10-part documentary series, 'The Last Dance,' airing on ESPN in the US with Netflix having the international rights.
While the Chicago native, former President Barack Obama, would have preferred Jordan to enter the political fray, he has some sympathy for his stance, saying in the film:"America is very quick to embrace a Michael Jordan, an Oprah Winfrey or a Barack Obama, so long as it's understood that you don't get too controversial around broader issues of social justice.
