With his team down one point and the ball in the Jazz&#8217;s possession, Michael Jordan single-handedly took control of the final moments that lead one of the defining moments of his career.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Swatting like a panther, Jordan snatched the ball from a posted Karl Malone and drove the ball down the court as the time was clicking away, along with the chances of coming away with a win. From just atop the 3-point arc, a hard drive to his right with a quick cutback leaves a defending Bryon Russell stumbling and remembered as the final person defeated in a one-on-one with MJ as a Bull. With only one chance to fire, Jordan seized the opportunity as his jump shot went through the basket with 5.2 seconds left on the clock in what would be in final game wearing black and red.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"793\" height=\"750\" onerror=\"this.src='https:\/\/www.snkrsday.com\/files\/2023\/12\/404-dead-image.jpg'\" src=\"https:\/\/www.snkrsday.com\/files\/2023\/06\/b540da74af6d3be42c06fd7f73f8bf86-793x750.jpeg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-1219043\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.snkrsday.com\/files\/2023\/06\/b540da74af6d3be42c06fd7f73f8bf86-793x750.jpeg 793w, https:\/\/www.snkrsday.com\/files\/2023\/06\/b540da74af6d3be42c06fd7f73f8bf86-529x500.jpeg 529w, https:\/\/www.snkrsday.com\/files\/2023\/06\/b540da74af6d3be42c06fd7f73f8bf86-291x275.jpeg 291w, https:\/\/www.snkrsday.com\/files\/2023\/06\/b540da74af6d3be42c06fd7f73f8bf86-768x726.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/www.snkrsday.com\/files\/2023\/06\/b540da74af6d3be42c06fd7f73f8bf86-200x189.jpeg 200w, https:\/\/www.snkrsday.com\/files\/2023\/06\/b540da74af6d3be42c06fd7f73f8bf86.jpeg 1200w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 793px) 100vw, 793px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>For some of us, it seems like it was only yesterday that our eyes were peeled to the screen hearing Bob Costas and the NBC crew cover the epic moment in the history of Michael Jordan, the NBA, and the game of basketball.
