Michael Jordan – winner

Michael Jordan was the engine and face of the documentary, and his greatness on display from college to the pros cemented his talent and drive amongst all generations. Millennials knew the historical legend Jordan presented as a clutch performer on the floor and a high-flyer amongst the air, but it was a different feel to actually see the grit-and-grind MJ went through to get to his success.

Every player in today’s game has the skill and ability to be an NBA player, and many have the flair to be a memorable star presence in the league. However, to be a legend, one has to go through pitfalls and persevere from them to pursue true legendary greatness.

Michael Jordan did exactly that, and then some, to cement his lore as an NBA legend. The documentary perfectly analyzes and digs deep into those traits and why there will never be another No. 23.
