Michael Jordan has been quiet since he was ousted from his post in Washington, but league sources claim that he remains interested in purchasing an NBA franchise.

The problem for Jordan is that he remains adamant on receiving a 'Jordan Discount.'

"He's a smart businessman, what I would call a 'value shopper,' David Stern said. "He's not going to be involved just in any situation, unless it meets certain economic perameters. He hasn't found that yet. His interest in the NBA continues unabated."
