Michael Jordan Trash-Talked Kemba Walker at his Hornets Draft Workout

There's no rite of passage in the NBA quite like being trash-talked by Michael Jordan. Forget being dunked on by LeBron, blocked by Dikembe or crossed over by Iverson—getting an earful from the GOAT is an experience every NBA player lucky enough to experience it will cherish forever. Especially the first time.

For SI TV's The Big Interview, SI.com's Chris Mannix spoke with Hornets All-Star point guard Kemba Walker about what it's like playing on a team owned by Jordan and what he remembers from his first interraction with the former Bulls legend. In true Jordan fashion, it involved throwing a little shade.
