    Heartbroken Michael Jordan overcome with emotions

    Michael Jordan paid tribute to basketball star Jerry West during First Take.

    It was confirmed earlier today that the guy featured on the NBA emblem died at the age of 86, surrounded by his wife.

    Numerous tributes have been paid to West, who was a champion on and off the court.

    Furthermore, First Take reported on X that Jordan, 61, texted Stephen A. Smith while he was live to give his thoughts.

    Smith, MJ’s agent, read, “I am so deeply saddened by the news of Jerry’s death.”

    “He was a reliable friend and teacher.” Much like an elder brother.

    “I valued his friendship and understanding.”

    Although I had always wanted to play against him, the more I got to know him, the more I wished I had joined his team.

    “His basketball knowledge impressed me, and the way he and I played the game was a lot alike.”

    “His wife, Karen, and kid will miss him forever. “My condolences.” Heaven’s peace, Logo.”

    Regarding a video clip of the homage, one admirer commented, “Wow, that’s really nice of MJ.”

    Jerry West was, in my opinion, the best general manager of all time. Without a doubt, the greatest general manager of all time. “Rest in peace, Jerry ‘The Logo’ West,” added someone another.

    “We will miss him,” added a third.

    “Jerry West—all class!” “Last resting place,” a fourth individual said.

    In addition, Smith, 56, remembered a story from when he met West.

    Although West was watching the analyst’s show, he overheard Smith declare that Jordan should be the NBA’s logo.

    When West called the ESPN star, he shocked him by saying he agreed.

    Smith clarified: “He called because he thought I sounded like I would argue against it.”

    He was saying, “absolutely not.” Jackson is my favourite athlete. I think he deserves it.

    West, one of the greatest NBA players of all time, also contributed to the Los Angeles Lakers’ 1980s dynasty.

    He died while working as a consultant with the Los Angeles Clippers.

    In 2010, the Lakers honored West with a statue, and in 2019, he was awarded the Presidential Medal of Freedom.
