No doubt MJ needed a pair of these Jordan Hydro 12 slides after Game 5 of the 1997 NBA Finals. That was the “Flu Game” performance, so dubbed because of MJ’s courageous 38-point outburst while battling the Utah Jazz and food poisoning at the same time. The court-ready Air Jordan 12 “Flu Game” releases May 28th ($190), but you can catch the “Flu Game” Hydros – along with a version matching the AJ12 “UNC” – now at Nike.com.
