Charlotte Bobcats part-owner Michael Jordan returned to his hometown Friday to get his first glimpse of the team he remade in the offseason.
Jordan arrived to learn he may be shopping for big men after forward Sean May's decision to have season-ending knee surgery.
Jordan, who has the final say on all basketball decisions, watched from the balcony as the Bobcats went through a 45-minute scrimmage at UNC Wilmington under new coach Sam Vincent.
"We had a good conversation. He's very supportive of the way we're practicing," Vincent said. "He likes what he sees. It was real encouraging to have him come and watch what we're doing."
