While Michael Jordan is one of the most decorated basketball players in history, he is also one of the sport’s few billionaires.

According to the Chicago Sun-Times, Jordan has a net worth (as of 2021) of $1.6 billion. While that’s far from a shabby number, the outlet points out that that it’s still a $500 million drop from what his net worth was in 2020. And the reason behind the drop? The GameStop saga.

“Two years ago, Jordan — the majority owner of the Hornets since 2010 — sold a minority share of the Hornets to two investors. One of them was Gabe Plotkin, founder and chief investment officer of Melvin Capital, a hedge fund that required billions in additional cash after incurring major losses due to a short squeeze of GameStop stock by groups of retail investors,” the outlet reported.

Despite this hit, Michael Jordan still isn’t suffering by any means. During his career, his salary totaled $90 million. He’s involved with the DraftKings, he’s a NASCAR team co-owner, and his deal with the Charlotte Hornets netted him a $1.5 billion payday. He’s also earned nearly $2 billion in endorsements from companies like Gatorade, Nike, and Hanes.

In a nutshell, he’s the GOAT of basketball, and the GOAT of the business of basketball.

Today, though, his children are in the news because Jordan’s daughter, Jasmine, reportedly revealed she recently became a married woman. Jasmine had been dating Rakeem Christmas since they first met at Syracuse University, and they became engaged in 2018. A year later, the pair welcomed their son, Rakeem Michael Christmas — who is also Jordan’s first grandchild! But in a recent Instagram story, Jasmine’s huge engagement ring was paired with what looked like a wedding band, leading people to believe that she was now married.

Though Jasmine hasn’t confirmed or denied the rumors, she’s certainly successful in her own right. And success is a family tradition! Let’s take a look at what Michael Jordan’s children are up to today and how they’re keeping his billion-dollar legacy alive.
