Michael Jordan Dropped The “Last Shot” 18 Years Ago Today

The drive, the pull-up, the swish.

Michael Jordan closed out his otherworldly career with the Chicago Bulls 18 years ago today, canning the go-ahead bucket against the Utah Jazz to win his sixth NBA championship. It was Jordan who set up the storybook play with his steal from Karl Malone and final drive on the iso play.

Jordan finished with 45 points and Finals MVP – also his sixth. The Last Shot turned the Air Jordan 14 Black/Black-Varsity Red he wore into an instant classic. Even the backboard set was gilded, selling for over $40k in July 2015.
