Jordan wasn’t a polished scorer in college, but his relentless work ethic in the pros turned his weaknesses into strengths. Even teammates and coach doubted him, with Perkins calling his shots “a little wild” and coach Dean Smith comparing his freshman shot to volleyballs. Playing third behind Worthy and Perkins, Jordan’s lack of early spotlight may have even helped his draft position—third overall to Chicago—where he thrived. His transformation from overlooked college player to basketball legend proves that greatness is forged through grit, not hype. Support the show: Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
