Kobe Bryant passed over Michael Jordan for his ideal group to join in a pick-up basketball game, saying he’d take Magic Johnson as his backcourt mate along with Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, Larry Bird and Bill Russell.
Jordan, a five-time National Basketball Association Most Valuable Player who ranks third in league history in scoring, last month said his dream pick-up team would include Johnson, former Chicago Bulls teammate Scottie Pippen, James Worthy and Hakeem Olajuwon.
