Michael Jordan Once Forced A Young Bow Wow To Get Rid Of His Allen Iverson Shoes

(WSCR) Michael Jordan takes his brand very, very seriously.

And when a young Bow Wow came to his house wearing a pair of Allen Iverson's Reebok shoes, Jordan wasn't happy.

In an interview with Montreality, the rapper explained the story:

"I'm actually real cool with his sons, Marcus and Jeffrey… I would say, we kinda grew up together," Bow Wow said. "Being on tour, every time we came to Chicago, even at the age of like 15, they would come around and we just clicked.

"There'd be times I stayed over at the family, ya know, Mr. Jordan's house… Actually a funny story, I actually wore some Iversons to their house… and Michael Jordan woke us all up and was like 'Whose is these?'… and I was like 'they're mine'… and I never saw My A.I.'s after that moment. I was in some Jordan's going down to play some basketball."
