Jordan back in circulation

CHARLOTTE, North Carolina – Michael Jordan vows to help Charlotte experience what winning is about, telling reporters and season ticket holders it’s a “dream come true” to own the Bobcats.

Thursday’s whirlwind of media interviews comes a day after the rest of the NBA’s owners approved his $275 million purchase from Bob Johnson. Jordan is the first former player to own an NBA team, and the second black majority owner. Johnson was the first.

Jordan had been a part owner of the Bobcats with the final say on all basketball decisions since 2006. But he hired a general manager and was rarely heard from or seen in Charlotte.  (AP)
