Jordan’s 90s era looks, as well as current fashion prowess, remain unrivaled. It was affirmed by none other than his former teammate, Luc Longley. The Chicago Bulls’ recent Rings of Honor Gala event saw the member of the Bulls’ 1996-98 roster, Longley honored as well. During an interview, he agreed that the 6x champion has an impeccable fashion style.

In a tribute clip dedicated to ex-Bulls player, Longley, a short interview was presented. During the conversation, he was asked about the best moments from his playing days with the franchise. When asked about the best-dressed Bulls player, without a moment’s hesitation, Longley named Jordan. From Jordan’s game-changing Nike sneakers to the distinctive bling earrings, the 14x NBA All-Star is a true icon in sports and Longley’s connection to Nike during his playing days further showed the brand and Jordan’s impact. It appears Gayle might not have been wrong about her opinion.
