Michael Jordan is widely regarded as the greatest player in NBA history. Moreover, Jordan has become a cultural icon, who has inspired generations with his competitiveness and desire to be great. However, one quality of Jordan that often goes under the radar is his generosity. Don’t be fooled by his larger-than-life persona; MJ is one of the most generous athletes out there. In fact, one of his recent philanthropic efforts left Kevin Durant completely in awe.
Michael Jordan and his mother, Deloris, recently unveiled their third clinic in their hometown of Wilmington, North Carolina. Their mission? To provide quality healthcare to those who are uninsured or underinsured, and others in need. What’s truly remarkable is that Jordan himself contributed a generous $10 million to make it happen. MJ’s philanthropic act caught Kevin Durant’s attention, who expressed his gratitude via his official X (formerly Twitter) account. He wrote, “2 goats who impacted the world. Much Love to the Jordans and everything they do!”
During an emotional address to the crowd that gathered for the opening, Michael Jordan outlined his clinic’s goals. He said, “It’s good to be home. That’s what this clinic is about. When the families aren’t able to support, we’re there to support. Don’t have any money, doesn’t matter. We gonna do whatever we can to support you.”
