Michael Jordan never hid the fact that gambling was a huge part of his life that he was unable to rise against for years.
His gambling habit left him in so much debt at some point when he was in the NBA and it reportedly led to his father’s murder, James R. Jordan in July 1993.
It was the same year that the Chicago Bulls legend took a two-year retirement from the NBA but not many people knew what was happening.
Well, Michael Franzese, a reformed American gangster said that this rumour of Jordan’s debts leading to his father’s death has considerable merit and credibility. Franzese while speaking during an interview with VladTV in 2019 opened up on his time working with the NBA to educate players about the risks of gambling.
