“Michael Jordan Was In My Car!”: Chris Tucker Revealed an Unheard MJ Story Before Hilariously Mimicking the GOAT

Much like many other children growing up in the 1980s and 1990s, Chris Tucker too was a huge fan of Michael Jordan. Jordan’s incredible display on the basketball court left many like Tucker to be in awe of him.

Now, Tucker has gotten a golden opportunity to impress His Airness with his upcoming movie AIR.

A story of Nike directed by Ben Affleck shows how Sonny Vaccaro signed a business deal with a rookie Jordan and how the signing completely transformed the brand.

“Michael Jordan signed a little ball for me”: Chris Tucker

For the promotions of the upcoming release, the celebrity trio of Chris, Ben, and Matt Damon appeared on Complex’s “Sneaker Shopping”.

Tucker, who will be seen playing the role of Howard White, the now Senior Vice President of Brand Jordan at Nike, revealed an unheard MJ story during the episode.

After Joe La Puma, the show’s host, displayed an extremely old photo of Tucker and Jordan, the American actor narrated the story from the time when the Bulls GOAT sat in his car during a kid’s camp in Santa Barbara.

“It was in Santa Barbara. I used to take my son up there. It was a camp for kids and Michael was up there and it was unbelievable. He got in my car. I had a Bentley and a truck one time. He said ‘You bought this? This your car?’ I’m like ‘Yeah! I’m never selling this car! Michael Jordan was in my car!’ He rode in the car with me. He had his little drink in his hand. But, I’ll never forget that he signed this little ball for me, signed my son a ball. Still got it.”

Once again, the comedian displayed his spot-on impersonation of the Black Cat. When Joe La Puma asked Chris “You have an MJ impression or what?” The star of the Rush Hour trilogy went on to mimic MJ… and was extremely hilarious.

“Yeah. What you doing? What you doing out here? How did you get into my party?” (mimics Jordan)
