Marcus Jordan shares the same initials as his legendary father Michael Jordan. However, it is safe to say that Marcus doesn’t share his father’s legendary dominance on the court and astonishing accolades. However, once during an interview, he claimed to defeat his father in a one-on-one game. But the obsessively competitive Michael Jordan soon took his revenge in the rematch just after losing.
Back in 2020, during an interview with TMZ Sports, Marcus Jordan was asked about him playing with his father on the court. He recalled that once he defeated his father in a one-on-one game. He revealed that they were playing a modified version of one-on-one called cutthroat. Although, Marcus didn’t remember the score but he said, “I had a quick victory.”

Michael Jordan has two sons and three daughters. Marcus Jordan is MJ’s youngest son. Marcus did follow in his dad’s footsteps and pursued basketball during high school and before graduating from college. And throughout his career, he averaged 12.3 points, 2.9 rebounds, and 2.7 assists per game, with a field goal percentage of 39.4. But still, he didn’t make it to the NBA.
Therefore, Marcus couldn’t carry the basketball legacy of his father. Instead, he went on to take the entrepreneurial path like his billionaire father. In 2016, He opened his first business named Trophy Room. It is a boutique sneaker store in Orlando, where he sells exclusive Jordan sneakers. And he has also collaborated with other top brands including Nike and Upper Deck Card company.
