world has ever seen, used to grab headlines all over the world during his playing days for his performances, which were parallel to none. After a long time, he has once again hogged the lime light, but for an off-court event. He has got engaged with a Cuban model, Yvette Prieto, after dating her for three years.

So he can involve himself in anything that he would have loved to, hence post-retirement he has been passing his time by playing a game of golf in celebrity tournaments, spending leisure time with his family that used to comprise of his wife and 3 children. Sometimes, he was also spotted in his son’s basketball match to spur him on, and he also appeared on a popular sitcom series, My Wife and Kids.
Apart from such kind of stuff he was also involved in business, as he is the owner of a professional closed-course motorcycle road racing team, Michael Jordan Motorsports. He has always been a good administrator, as he was also Washington's President of Basketball Operations for Washington Wizards, before he was fired from the post on May, 2003.
Post retirement too, his love for
sports has never died away. He has been related to various sports, such as Golf, Motor racing and off course Basketball as discussed above. Let’s wait and watch how things would shape up after his engagement with Yvette Prieto.
