Juanita Vanoy has enjoyed a special bond with Jeffrey over the years. Coming out from his legendary father’s shadow on the basketball court was always going to be a challenge for Jeffrey. Everything thing he did, every step he took while playing would be inevitably compared to the six-time NBA Champion. So in order to distinguish himself Jeffrey pulled off a unique move.

Starting his basketball journey at the University of Illinois, Jeffrey adopted his mother’s jersey number. Vanoy used to play basketball and her jersey number was 13, having born on June 13. So Jeffrey donned the number 13 in a tribute to his mother.

Vanoy has always been supportive of her kids and rarely misses the chance to wish them on their special days. Last year she wished her Marcus Jordan on his birthday, posting a picture of the two on Instagram with the caption, “Wishing a very HAPPY BIRTHDAY to the 3rd member of “The Three Tops”, my middle child and youngest son, Marcus, @heirmj523, Love you ❤️.”

Before that she also posted a nostalgic picture of herself with her daughter Jasmine, to make her birthday special. She shared a picture of the 1993 June edition of Ebony magazine that featured Juanita and Jasmine as one of the four mother-and-child duos. In the caption of the Instagram post she wrote, she wrote, “Wishing a very happy birthday to the youngest member of The Three Tops, my daughter, Jasmine, @mickijae 🎉
