Michael Jordan acknowledged he wanted to sign Marvin Harrison Jr. to his brand.

Michael Jordan has increasingly chosen to live life away from the limelight over time, preferring instead to make quiet contributions through various charities and foundations. But occasionally he can still be found attending sporting events — particularly basketball related ones — like Saturday’s Pro Football Hall of Fame Induction ceremony where he attended.
Reporters noted Jordan approaching former Colts great Marvin Harrison for a quick chat, wherein he told Harrison he hoped his son, Andrew Harrison would sign on with Jordan Brand despite all efforts but Nike being successful with signing him away instead. Jordan then told Harrison his message and left without leaving an autograph behind:
Former NBA superstar Kevin Garnett might not be used to being rejected, yet even one of the greatest basketball players can find themselves humbled by rejection from something as important as an NFL rookie draft pick – one who may surpass even his father in terms of professional football success! Garnett may now consider joining his new family member’s professional squad instead.

“His height and movement ability don’t usually go hand in hand, yet his movements seem effortless,” stated Cardinals cornerback Garrett Williams during the summer. “For him to make everything seem easy with his ball tracking abilities he truly lives up to what people say he can be.”
MJ was present during two significant events while visiting Canton, Ohio: first was attending the Pro Football Hall of Fame’s 2024 induction ceremony for Dwight Freeney whom he personally knows and supported as one of its inductees and then second, at an appearance sponsored by Nike at their 2024 induction celebration for Dwight Freeney whose induction ceremony also occurred during this trip.
However, they summoned Jordan during Julius Peppers’ induction ceremony at North Carolina, as both had attended there and played basketball before switching over to football. It was at that point they chose him out from amongst all those present for induction and called out his name from amongst the crowd.
Peppers took time during his speech to acknowledge Chicago legend MJ for inspiring and motivating him during his career. Peppers said this as part of his speech at Chapel Hill: “MJ, I love you big bro.”
Kevin Hart recently discussed why Michael Jordon (MJ) never spoke to him after some jokes made by Kevin almost 10 years prior.
Michael Jordan prefers not being seen, for one primary reason: every action he takes ends up making the news and being misconstrued as fact or misrepresented. According to actor Kevin Hart, Jordan may no longer want anything to do with him after making some negative remarks and even mocking them and their children during one meeting.
“It was quick and fun. I don’t remember where it originated; I just hit him with one quick one – Michael got defensive & hasn’t spoken with me since,” the comedian recently explained; this statement wasn’t the first time they addressed this situation either.
Eight years ago, Jimmy Kimmel invited him onto his talk show and asked what had gone wrong between himself and one of the greatest basketball players ever seen on court – one who, by many measures, could rival Michael Jordan himself as far as talent was concerned. He answered his query honestly but eventually left without giving much away about their past relationship.
