Michael Jordan’s Daughter Needed to Use Google to Figure Out Why Her Dad Was Such a Big Deal

I don’t know how I came to learn about how great Michael Jordan was. I was not even six during MJ’s final year with the Bulls. I vaguely remember him coming out of retirement to join the Wizards and people on SportsCenter making a big deal out of it, so it seemed like something I should care about.

Jordan’s daughter Jasmine is roughly my age and, despite being Michael Jordan’s daughter, also didn’t really get why people were so obsessed with her dad.

Jasmine told the Associated Press that when she was a kid, she had to resort to using Google to see what all the fuss was about.
