In summer 1992 Jordan hit another peak: as the core of the "Dream Team" at the Barcelona Olympics — the first Games with NBA pros, stacking Jordan, Magic and Bird.
The Dream Team drew massive crowds; every game was a rout. Jordan often deferred the spotlight yet remained the focus. The Games exported NBA star culture worldwide; countless overseas kids fell for basketball because of them.
For Jordan, 1992 was a club-and-country peak year: just repeated as champ, then stood atop the Olympic podium. He was Chicago’s king and basketball’s global face.
A team can represent a nation; a man can represent a sport. Jordan and the Dream Team made basketball the world’s language.
