When one talks about dominance in the NBA, the Chicago Bulls cannot be overlooked. The team dominated the NBA for an entire decade, winning 6 titles in the process. Although Michael Jordan happens to be the most famous name to come out of the Bulls team, he had a trusted arsenal of talented players. This included names like Scottie Pippen, Dennis Rodman, and Steve Kerr, amongst others.

Although Pippen and Jordan may not be on the best of terms today, the two go way back. Jordan once pulled a prank on Pippen that resulted in him suffering a loss of hundreds of dollars. Jordan hilariously tricked Pippen to bet on prerecorded Jumbotron races during their home games in a Bulls jersey.

Michael Jordan tricked Scottie Pippen during their playing days

Jordan and Pippen won 6 NBA titles during their time in the Chicago Bulls amongst various other individual accolades. While many may remember Jordan to be the upright leader of the locker room, a story involving him and Pippen shows his lighter side. The Chicago Bulls broadcasted animated bull races on their jumbotron and Jordan saw it as a great opportunity to have some fun.

Jordan somehow found out that the animated races which were broadcasted were animated. He asked the Bulls’ staff about the race before every screening and Pippen fell victim to Jordan’s prank.

Jordan and his habit of betting

This is not the only time Jordan placed a bet with a teammate. A former teammate once revealed how Jordan placed insane bets on a childhood game!

Although Jay Williams played a handful of games in the Chicago Bulls, he shares an interesting incident with Jordan. According to Williams, Jordan never missed out on placing a bet on rock, paper, and scissors.

And these were not your ordinary bets. Sometimes the betting amounts would go as high as $100K! Although Michael Jordan might have an insane net worth, it is still a ridiculous amount to bet. This just proves Jordan loved risks and would go to any lengths for that risk.
