Michael Jordan’s sale of the Hornets has left him with a bit more time on his hands. Apparently, he’s using some of that newfound freedom to become more invested in his NASCAR team.
According to racing legend Denny Hamlin, who is a co-partner and the current driver for the Michael Jordan-Denny Hamlin NASCAR team, 23XI Racing, the 60-year-old has become increasingly involved following the sale of the NBA franchise.
“Certainly, he's involved in more meetings. Now he wants to be on every branding e-mail. I'm like, ‘Oh boy, this could be interesting.' So, yeah, I think he has some more time and perhaps he's gonna use that more on the race team,” Hamlin said to reporters on Saturday morning, via Bob Pockrass.
