Say it ain’t so, Scottie. Michael Jordan is known for being a highly competitive gambler. There were some reported instances where Jordan allegedly cheated to win random prop bets. Scottie Pippen said Jordan cheated on some bets, but won others through reputational advantages. Jordan’s former sidekick Scottie Pippen said MJ has cheated on some bets and won others through purchased or reputational advantages during an appearance on The Dan Le Batard Show.
“I will say that he cheated on a few of his bets,” Pippen said.
Pippen didn’t get into specifics, but he could be talking about this:
According to Amin Elhassan of ESPN, Jordan allegedly bet Pippen $100 on the outcome of pre-recorded animated Bull races during games on the Chicago Stadium jumbotron. However, Jordan would ask the Bulls’ operations staff before each game which color bull would win the race that night. They would tell him, and then Jordan would use this information to trick Pippen into a losing bet.
Jordan has also been accused of gaining advantages on the golf course.
