While introducing the inductees, Obama ribbed MJ and called him “the guy from Space Jam.” I hope Kevin Durant is someday referred to as “the guy from Thunderstruck.”
Obama then became the highest-ranking public official to make a Crying Jordan joke.
To be clear: Michael Jordan is actually the guy from the shoe company.
