Michael Jordan, Jimmy Butler compete in shooting contest at youth camp
Jordan’s team of kids went up against Butler’s crew in an intense shooting battle.
A Sacramento teenager is enjoying 15 minutes of fame after video of him and former Chicago Bulls great Michael Jordan surfaced from Jordan’s Flight School basketball camp this weekend. The 25-year-old All-Star has become arguably the best player in Chicago these days, and had an opportunity to knock off the greats Bulls player of all time.
At 25, Butler, who is in his prime and now playing at the professional level would seemed the right choice to win the shootout compared to a 52 year old retired player. The kid just played in a shooting competition with Michael Jordan!
Currently, Jordan is an entrepreneur and chairman and principal owner of Charlotte Hornets. Then he leaves adidas to sign on with Jordan Brand. Here’s his Instagram post calling Jordan “La Cabra” which is Spanish for “GOAT”. If the camper on his team had gone cold, it wouldn’t be out of MJ’s competitive nature to rip into him until he performed.
Michael Jordan is a 6 time National Basketball Association Champion (1991 to 1993 and 1996 to 1998) and a 5-time regular season league MVP.
