It would be hard to believe someone were to tell that Michael Jordan once did not get an entry into a party in Chicago. Former Miami Heat player Dwyane Wade had a similar incident to share in a recent interview.

It was at the time when he had just come into the NBA. Miami Heat were hosting a draft party. While Wade was in the party, as he narrated, he found out Jordan was outside and wasn’t allowed.

“I just got drafted to the Heat, and then going back to Chicago after that, they had a big draft party,” Wade told The Athletic. “And I’m inside the draft party, and it was poppin’. I remember my cousin came and got me, and he was like, ‘Yo, Jordan’s here. They won’t let him in.’ I’m like, ‘What, man? Stop playing with me.’ And he was like, ‘Bro, I’m serious. Michael Jordan is outside with like 50 people. They won’t let him in.’

Michael Jordan did not get entry because he didn’t pay

For a man who has led the city’s NBA club to six titles, it is hard to imagine he would be asked to pay. However, Wade’s story revealed that Jordan did not get entry because he wouldn’t pay.

“So we run out the door, run up front where they won’t let him in. ‘Why y’all won’t let Jordan in?’ Somebody was like, ‘He wouldn’t pay.’ I’m like, ‘What?’ So I run outside and Michael Jordan is out there on a motorcycle, surrounded by like 30 dudes,” Wade said.

As a youngster, Wade was just happy to see Jordan seeing Jordan and getting wishes from him.

“I run up to him. I’m in awe, of course, a young kid. And he said, ‘I just wanted to come by and show you some love.’ I think he said something about them trippin’ at the front, or something like that. But he’s like, ‘I just wanted to come by and show you some love. Congratulations on getting drafted.’ And I was just like, ‘Man, thank you for coming.’ I couldn’t believe it. ‘Thank you for coming. You want to come in?’ And he’s like, ‘Nah, nah, we good. I just came by to show you some love.’ And he rode off on his motorcycle,” Wade said.
