Getting a deal with Michael Jordan: Sonny Vaccaro talks

Sonny Vaccaro recently appeared on the latest episode of the Rich Eisen Show. He got candid about Jordan’s deal with Nike. After the NBA legend’s mother talked Jordan into the deal with Nike, he wanted a partnership with Nike, but was more keen on getting a car out of it. In fact, Jordan would have settled on the deal just for the car. The NBA legend would have missed out on $1,500,000,000+ had he settled for a Red Mercedes.
