James Worthy

Mike's college teammate. He was just a freshman on the 82 team and Worthy was a Junior. He gets on this list because of the relationship they shared in college. Even as a freshman Mike was competitive. He came in and challenged the best player on the team, Worthy, in practice, bowling, 1-on-1's, shooting drills, everything. You can almost say that Worthy forced Jordan to put forth his best effort in everything. We know Mike today as a talented and revolutionary ball player that made it known that his competitive side drives him. Just know it blossomed while playing against James Worthy.
