MJ and the Charlotte Hornets: A timeline

Well, it was no secret that a player of Michael Jordan’s caliber would eventually go on to own an NBA franchise. When he came back to the league in 2001, he wanted to take up the mantle of the owner of the Washington Wizards.

That didn’t work out like he wanted it to. But an opportunity came knocking in the form of his hometown team, Charlotte Hornets. There was a vacancy for an owner/executive and MJ took it up.

Of course, he was mildly successful, and eventually, he did end up buying the controlling share and stepping back as an executive. He is only the owner as of now, but his franchise’s struggles despite drafting great players might be a sign that he isn’t as dominant off the court as he was on it.
