Michael Jordan revealed the one dunk that gave him 'chills' during his glorious NBA career

Michael Jordan is arguably the greatest NBA player of all time and one of his most special dunks came in just his second ever match.

The six-time NBA champion developed into a truly complete player and one who scored 32,292 points for the Chicago Bulls and Washington Wizards across 15 seasons.

Jordan delivered so many memorable moments and won games by himself on a number of occasions in his absolute pomp.

But there was one particular play of his that gives him "chills" and it came when he was just a rookie.

Jordan made waves at college level with North Carolina Tar Heels and was a part of their 1982 national championship triumph.

He was the third overall pick in the 1984 draft and made an instant impact.

On October 27,1984, in just his second NBA appearance, Jordan scored 21 points and produced three sensational dunks against Milwaukee Bucks.

And one unassisted on a fastbreak ended up getting christened the "cradle dunk".

The 6ft 6 shooting guard broke away and leapt up to the rim with frightening athleticism with the sort of dunk which earned him the 'His Airness' nickname.

Years later, Jordan remains in awe of the incredible passage of play he conjured up whenever he watches it.

"I wish I could show you a film of a dunk I had in Milwaukee," Jordan told Sports Illustrated.

"It's in slow motion, and it looks like I'm taking off - like somebody put wings on me. I get chills when I see it."

In his very first season, Jordan played all 82 games and averaged 28.2 points, 6.5 rebounds, 5.9 assists, and 2.4 steals per game and 51.5% shooting to deservedly win Rookie of the Year.

He was also came sixth in the MVP voting and later picked up the lucrative gong on five occasions.

Jordan was also a two-time Slam Dunk contest winner in 1987 and 1988.
