Michael Jordan

Philadelphia was the setting for Jordan's final NBA game, on April 16, 2003, against the 76ers. Playing limited minutes due to the game's score, Jordan still mustered 15 points despite the eventual Wizards loss. After sitting out much of the fourth quarter, Jordan re-entered the game in the final minutes after the usually hostile Philly crowd serenaded him with sustained chants of "we want Mike!" Jordan left the fans with one final moment to remember him by when, with 1:44 remaining, he sank his last two free throws, and then exited to a standing ovation which would last over three minutes.
