JAKARTA - About a year after the release of the documentary The Last Dance about Michael Jordan's last season with the Chicago Bulls, anecdotes about the iconic NBA star continue to emerge.

Antoine Walker, a former Boston Celtics, Dallas Mavericks, Miami Heat, and Minnesota Timberwolves player, revealed that he had gambled with Jordan for 36 hours, aka one and a half days.

Walker recalls that he was leaving for Boston in a few days, so he had about $ 100,000 (IDR 1.4 billion) in cash.

"I've always been a person who has cash. MJ has around $ 200,000 (IDR 2.8 billion), but he spent $ 500,000 (IDR 7, 1 billion)", he told the All Things Covered Podcast reported by the Daily Star, Friday, March 12.

"Mike was very competitive. I remember one time we played the spade for 36 hours. We played against two other guys.

"They won $ 900,000 (IDR 12, 9 billion)", continued Walker.

They had time to get all the money back except $ 20,000 (IDR 286 million). Jordan doesn't want to see them win the money and keep playing.

Jordan was exhausted and fell asleep at the table. "They finally won $ 180,000 (IDR 2, 5 billion) because he was too tired", concluded Walker.
