‘The Last Dance’ docu-series gave fans an insight into the iconic Chicago Bulls dynasty. However, there was also the element of Michael Jordan in his own time. The six-time champion has a special connection with music. And recently, while on a regular visit to the golf course, His Airness was blasting Taylor Swift. There was even a time when Jimmy Butler danced to every beat of a Swift song, and she was generous while giving him a rating for his moves.
Butler has made his name for being a big playoff performer and one of the stars of the league. However, he also gets the title of MJ’s ‘son’. Due to the similar looks and the jump shot, pundits and fans couldn’t help but speculate. While his magic on the court gave fans a point to argue, Jordan listening to Taylor Swift might be the cherry on the top.
