Besides the Charlotte Hornets, ‘MJ’s’ Nike’s Jordan Brand has also significantly helped him economically. The soaring team value and continued success of Nike’s Jordan Brand pushed Jordan’s net worth to $1.65 billion in Forbes’ billionaires’ list this month. The tally is up $350 million from 12 months earlier. Jordan ranks as the 1,477th wealthiest person in the world, up 90 spots from last year.
