Michael Jordan was asked to select his ideal starting five in NBA history. Predictably, he included himself in the lineup alongside four other legends. However, his selections raised eyebrows as he chose to omit LeBron James and Kobe Bryant.

Before becoming an NBA legend in his own right, LeBron James once famously squared off against Michael Jordan and other NBA stars in a pickup basketball game as a teenage phenom from Akron, Ohio. More than 20 years later,

Hawks 110 (21-19), Bulls 94 (18-23): Atlanta was without Trae Young, Jalen Johnson and Dominique Wilkins, but Keaton Wallace (27 points, six rebounds, six assists, four steals) led the Hawks over a Bulls team that shot 6 of 27 from deep and turned it over 20 times.

LeBron James said on the 'New Heights with Jason and Travis Kelce' podcast that playing with son Bronny James in the NBA is his 'No. 1 accomplishment'

During the interview, LeBron James admitted that the NFL had “defeated” them by raking in massive viewership. While the former Philadelphia Eagles center joked about the NFL “sneaking into the territory,” the 40-year-old basketball legend responded with a playful remark.

The NBA world would have loved to see LeBron James and Michael Jordan play against each other. Surprisingly it actually did happen, but it was when James was a teenager, and it was also a pickup game.

LeBron recalls the unforgettable experience of playing in a pick-up game alongside Michael Jordan and other All-Stars of that era, showcasing his dominance on the court.
