Hold onto your Air Jordans, folks, because UNC's basketball program is in a slump, and former Tar Heel champ Rashad McCants is begging Michael Jordan to dunk some of his $3.8 billion fortune into saving it! McCants, who hoisted the 2004-05 NCAA trophy, says MJ, Vince Carter, and Jerry Stackhouse need to pony up for UNC's Name, Image, and Likeness (NIL) fund to lure top talent in this cash-crazy college hoops era. After a humiliating first-round March Madness exit and no NBA first-round draft picks since 2021, McCants claims UNC's legendary vibe is fizzling, with recruits eyeing overseas gigs instead of Tar Heel glory. He points out that UNC's top NIL earner, Henri Veesaar, is stuck at a "paltry" $1.5 million, trailing behind 13 other players. While powerhouses like UConn and Villanova flash cash to win, McCants says UNC's stuck in the past, and it's time for Jordan's billionaire brotherhood to step up. As MJ preps for his flashy new NBC gig, McCants is shouting, "Forget the commentary, bring the bucks to Chapel Hill!"

Magic Words on: Jordan
"Michael is one of the best players of all time. His moves are incredible - among the most amazing I have ever seen. I think he wanted to win the '91 NBA Championship more than anyone on the court; and he deserved it, 'cause he worked harder than anyone to get it. The best thing about Michael is that he's a team player - he's constantly trying to help out his teammates and make them better. Look at how much he's helped Scottie Pippen. I really respect that" - Magic Johnson
Michael Jordan has led the Bulls to the NBA Playoffs every season since he joined Chicago for the 1984-85 season. He also holds the Bulls' NBA Playoffs record for every category with the exception of rebounds.
