Michael Jordan’s involvement in NASCAR as a team owner has faced scrutiny despite his contributions, particularly regarding team rights through the charter lawsuit. His partnership with driver Denny Hamlin in 23XI Racing has been a notable aspect of his presence in the sport.
During an appearance on the Actions Detrimental podcast, Denny Hamlin disclosed overhearing a critical remark about Michael Jordan at a meeting in Daytona. Hamlin stated that a “prominent figure” in the sport claimed Jordan “does nothing for the sport.” The individual, according to Hamlin, also hosts a podcast.
Hamlin’s revelation sparked considerable discussion and debate among NASCAR fans. Many expressed strong support for Jordan, citing his role in the charter lawsuit and its potential benefits for the sport’s long-term health and equality. One fan commented that Jordan and Hamlin may have done more for the sport than any team owner in recent years.
Speculation quickly arose regarding the identity of the individual who made the critical comment. Several fans suggested that FOX broadcaster Larry McReynolds was the source, citing his past comments on Sirius XM regarding Hamlin and Jordan. The increasing number of comments and theories suggests the individual may eventually be identified.
