They say we should use this time to learn something new – so we thought we’d offer up a history lesson free of charge!
We’re going to be recapping all the important sporting moments each and every day as we look to fill the void our beloved sports and teams have left behind.
So if it’s AFL, NRL, Basketball, Cricket, Golf or even Wrestling, be sure to return each and every morning as we take a trip back through the history books to relive some of sports’ greatest moments.
1991 – It’s Gotta Be the Shoes
Michael Jordan was crowned the NBA’s Most Valuable Player for the second time on this day in 1991 ahead of the Bulls’ first-ever Championship win over the Lakers.
Jordan played in all 82 games in ’91 where he averaged 31.5 points. Of course, the rest is history, as the GOAT went on to add a further three MVP trophies and five more championship rings to his name.
