Yesterday, it was announced that the man on the NBA logo had died at the age of 86, with his wife by his side.
“He was a real friend and teacher.” Like a big brother to me.
“I valued our friendship and what he knew.”
“I always wished I could have played against him, but as I got to know him better, I wished I had been on his team.”
“I liked his basketball insights, and the way he and I played the game was a lot alike.”
“He will be missed always. My condolences to his son and wife Karen.” Logo, may you rest in peace.
A fan said on a clip of the tribute, “Wow, that’s really nice of MJ.”
Smith, who is 56 years old, also remembered a story from a time when he met West.
While watching the analyst’s show, West heard Smith say that Jordan should take his place as the NBA’s logo.
West called the ESPN star and shockingly told him that he agreed.
Smith said, “He called because he thought I sounded like I would dismiss it.”
