NBC Sports – Michael Jordan will likely go down as the best basketball player to ever play the game.

There are likely going to be better athletes that follow in his footsteps of being very good basketball players, but it’s highly unlikely there will be a basketball player that can touch his combination of skillset, will to win and overall ability to effect every game he played in by simply outmatching the competition.

Jordan’s inability to be second best might’ve taken to an unprecedented level on Saturday, though.

Earlier in the day, we posted a video of LeBron James pulling around an all-terrain vehicle in his ongoing attempt to take overtake Jordan’s throne.

Shortly after posting about that solid bit of athleticism, though, Twitter bestowed upon us a picture of Jordan dunking a basketball:

Yep, that’s His Airness dunking a basketball in jeans at his annual Michael Jordan Flight School basketball camp.

As a reminder, Jordan turned 50 in February and can still dunk wearing jeans.

Looking at the photo, however, there are some campers pulling the old McKayla Maroney “not impressed” look — and even others that have their back turned(!) to the greatest player ever(!) dunking a basketball(!) at the age of 50(!) while wearing jeans!
