Michael Jordan

Author's Note:  This essay is about Michael Jordan.  I wrote this to explain how he became a legend (character development).

Michael Jordan was the greatest basketball player of all time is a very good player and person. He set out a dream and chased for it and he would stop until he got it. He plays basketball for his high school team, a lot of the fans and teammates say he defined the law of gravity because whenever he would go up for a dunk it would look like he would just float in mid- air, he had monster hops. Michael Jordan thought for a little while that if he was so good at basketball that he wouldn’t have to really pay attention in school. His dad told him that if he didn’t do his work that he shouldn’t even play basket ball and that he should do something else that he will actually do good in life with, pretty much he was saying that he should get his hopes up this much because he doesn’t want him to get his dreams crushed.

Michael started paying attention in school and started doing all his work and then after awhile he started getting straight A`s. After High School he got lots of full scholarships to all different schools and that made him feel very special. Mainly he wanted to go to one of his home teams either Carolina state or the North Carolina Tar Heels. After awhile he decided to take North Carolina Tar Heels and made a great choice. He went on to the team as a freshman and was already one of the best on the team. He played Guard and was at least the 1^st or 2nd on the team in overall in points, shooting, and dunks. After the first season one of the best players on the team when Michael became a sophomore so Michael had all the weight on his shoulders for this team.

Michael averages a solid 30 points a game. He is an all around player and is good for the team. His parents are very proud of him and all the accomplishments he has been having.

After his 4 years of basketball he gets picked in the first round by the Chicago Bulls and 2 years into the NBA he became the best player in the league and a legend and they still say that till this day.
