Jordan was reportedly signed with NBC as a special contributor, and celebrities have appeared one after another

According to US media Sports Casting, former NBA legend, basketball god Jordan, will serve as a special contributor for the NBC platform next season. Although NBC officially defined Jordan's position as a "special contributor" in the statement, NBC has not yet clarified what matters Jordan will be responsible for.
This is also the NBA's return to the NBC platform after 23 years. The last time the NBA broadcasted on the NBC platform went back to the 1990s. Those dozen seasons basically covered Jordan's entire peak period.
NBC has previously hired Anthony as the studio's commentator, and Jamal Crawford has also signed with the NBA to serve as a game analyst.
Jordan, who is 62 years old this year, has countless honors in his life, 6 championship trophys, 6 Finals FMVPs, 10 scoring titles, 10 best teams, and so on.
Just recently, a No. 23 jersey from Jordan was also sold at a high price. This was what he wore during his 1992-93 season. Jordan wore this jersey in 17 games that season. It is reported that the jersey sold at $2.6 million, with a total price of $2.623 million, including commissions.
Jordan wore this jersey on the cover of Sports Illustrated magazine on October 18, 1993 local time. However, this jersey is not the most expensive jersey that Jordan was auctioned. In 1998, Jordan's "Last Dance" jersey was the most expensive jersey that he was auctioned. The jersey was sold for $10.091 million in 2022.
Jordan's signing contract also set a new record. It is reported that the annual salary of NBC and Jordan was as high as $40 million. This contract will make Jordan the highest-paid sports commentator in history. In this way, he also surpassed the contract signed by Tom Brady and Fox Sports with an annual salary of $37.5 million, becoming the first person in history again.
Assuming that NBC's broadcast can appear on the screen of Chinese fans, I believe that many old fans who are disdainful of watching the NBA will return to the screen again to wait for their youthful memories.
