Everyone knows Michael Jordan. He’s one of the most iconic basketball players of our time. Before he influenced millions and became widely known as one of the best athletes of all time, Michael had some letdowns. During his sophomore year of high school, Michael Jordan was rejected from his school’s varsity basketball team.
