Michael Jordan will be on hand this weekend to watch his favorite childhood team…NC State.

Did you know that Michael Jordan grew up a Wolfpack fan? He sure did.

“I was a very avid NC State fan; I really like them very much. I was really a fan of David Thompson’s style of play, and I just couldn’t stand Carolina. It’s just something that I didn’t like about Carolina…” he said in an interview with Roy Firestone.

Should have gone with his gut, but oh well, I guess things sort of worked out for him.

Anyways, according to Inside Carolina, Jordan will be on hand as the Tar Heels celebrate their 1982 championship.

One of the greatest teams in #UNC Basketball history will be back in Chapel Hill this weekend. Story: https://t.co/TLDeeJygV5 pic.twitter.com/CzCHnIIsRi
