NBA legend Michael Jordan inspired millions of people worldwide with his talent and charisma. However, none of his children ever stepped foot on a professional basketball court. Will that change with MJ’s grandchildren? While there is a long time to go for that to happen, His Airness‘ 4-year-old grandson continues to be a menace to his mother. Following her son’s antics, the 30-year-old Jasmine Jordan shared a hilarious post on social media depicting the love of a parent through a wild animal.
While MJ publicly opposed his son’s relationship with Larsa Pippen, his daughter is certainly having fun with her son.
