Michael Jordan, a closed person, became the focus of attention when he decided to come back to the stage light. Admittedly, he was once part of the NBA to a certain extent with a minority shares at Charlotte Hornets. But now, he will appear on the big screen as a “special contributor”, and Steph Curry is extremely happy about that.

NBC once again won the copyright of NBA media along with Disney and Amazon in a surreal agreement worth $ 75 billion. With the first season of 2025-26, NBC knew that they had to devote their energy, namely Michael Jordan.

“I am very happy to see that NBA returns to NBC. NBA on NBC is a meaningful part of my career, and I am very excited to be specially contributed to this project,” MJshareAbout his participation.

Curry also has similar emotions about excitement. While participating in the American Century championship, EnglandSpeakingOn the “His Airness” program and wearing its analytical hat next season.

“I think it is great for the tournament when MJ is present. Not only a boss, but also a symbol. Let everyone know how he sees the game.”

Jordan, even in the majority of Hornets/Bobcats shares, has never really brought much entertainment to the fans. He occasionally appears in matches, but it seems enough to satisfy MJ’s loyal fans.

So, Jordan is now assigned such a great responsibility; It feels like he is pampering NBA fans despite doing what the other NBA legends think is quite normal.“To be honest, I don’t think he will do that”, Adam Silvershare, and many other celebrities in the tournament also think so.

Charles Barkley was shocked by this news of Jordan

Like Silver Commissioner, Charles Barkley was surprised to hear that Jordan would eventually join NBA. Because Chuck and MJ had a fierce argument with the public more than a decade ago, he did not know this information and was most likely to be known at the same time as the rest of the world.

“I don’t know what Michael will do. I don’t think he will do anything much,” said, “said Michael.” ChucksterTell Barstool Sports. A few seconds later, he emphasized the same view by saying,“I know he won’t do much. I was completely shocked, but I didn’t think he would do much.”

MVP in 1993 is sharing his thoughts from both personal experience as an old friend of Jordan and his image in public. Obviously over the past two decades, “closed” has been the best friend of MJ.

Nothing seems to make him more excited than traveling to Europe on super yachts with his wife, Yvette Prieto. And that is completely true. He has been hunted by media around the world 24/7 for decades when he is still famous, so the separation is the only feasible choice for a retired MJ.

So, Barkley’s shock is grounded. Regarding the story “nothing much”, this may be true. Maybe he said this is entirely based on “entertainment value” because MJ does not seem to be the type of person who likes to cause trouble at this age.

He will have a role similar to Tom Brady, an analyst, focusing only on the analysis of deals and play, in addition to nothing else. When it comes to hot judgments, it will be very interesting to see if this 62 -year -old man will return to time about harsh criticism days and drop himself into mischievous jokes.
