There’s been recent news of Michael Jordan acquiring the Charlotte Bobcats. Now you might be wondering how that is possible since he’s been out of the game so long? He must not have any money left. Well my friends, as I’m sure some of you know, pro athletes don’t get their money from playing the game, they get it from promoting products. That is why I present these 17 NBA-endorsed items.
I’m sure Michael Jordan has made more money from selling batteries than he ever did from playing basketball.
