‘Saturday Night Live’ parodies Michael Jordan’s cutthroat competitiveness from that ‘Last Dance’ quarters game with his bodyguard

Remember the scene in ESPN’s “The Last Dance” when Chicago Bulls superstar Michael Jordan lost a game tossing quarters against a wall to bodyguard John Michael Wozniak, who celebrated with a Jordan-esque shrug?

Roughly a year removed from the final episode of ESPN’s 10-part ode to MJ and the 1990s Bulls — and an earlier “SNL” parody of it — the NBC late-night mainstay returned to the well.

With Michael-Key as Jordan and a sensational turn by Heidi Gardner as Wozniak, “SNL” lampooned the Hall of Famer’s cutthroat competitive nature, love of gambling and penchant for feeding off perceived affront the ESPN’s docu-series showcased.
