Yes, Michael Jordan Is Still a Billionaire

His Airness back on the Forbes list.

Forbes released its latest list of the world's billionaires this week, including Michael Jordan as the 1,577th richest billionaire in the world.

They're estimating Jordan's net worth at $1.14 billion, which makes him the 486th richest person in the U.S.

Forbes mentions Jordan's ownership of the Charlotte Hornets as accounting for a good chunk of his massive wealth. The millions of Air Jordans Nike sells every year don't hurt either of course.

Also landing on the list is Nike co-founder and chairman Phil Knight, the 24th richest billionaire and 16th richest person in the U.S. with an estimated worth of $26.1 billion.
