It felt like the entire sports world came together Sunday night to relive the greatness of Michael Jordan as the highly anticipated 10-part documentary series “The Last Dance” premiered on ESPN, and NBA players who grew up idolizing Jordan, along with a younger generation of players who were too young to appreciate Jordan in his prime, were blown away.
“The Last Dance” opened with a quick look back at the Bulls’ dominant championship runs leading up to the 1997-98 NBA season, and Jordan’s journey from North Carolina to the NBA. Here’s what NBA players were saying about “The Last Dance” on the night of the premiere.
Don’t text me… don’t call me… I’m tuned!! #LastDance 🐐 #45
