Michael Jordan's response after watching his two sons 'get torched' by future NBA star on national TV

Michael Jordan's response to watching his two sons get rinsed by a future NBA player was as cold as you would expect.

With their dad arguably the greatest basketball player of all time and an indoor court in their house, you would have thought that some of Jordan's magic abilities would have passed down to his offspring.

Twin sons Marcus and Jeffrey Jordan did play in high school for Loyola Academy but never progressed to the NBA.

But back in 2007 they were on the receiving end of a truly sensational display from future NBA star Eric Gordon.

The game between Loyola and North Central was shown live on ESPN and Jordan was in attendance to see his sons play.

But after leading 15-7 early on, they ended up getting absolutely destroyed by their opponents, with Gordon completely running the show.

North Central won 88-47 and Gordon scored 43 points - almost more himself than Loyola, ranked 22nd in the country at the time, managed collectively.

Marcus and Jeffrey were tasked with guarding Gordon but to no avail as he delivered threes aplenty.

To further rub salt in the wounds, Gordon was wearing the No.23 - Jordan's iconic number for the Chicago Bulls - and even got the 'Air Gordon' nickname following chants from the crowd

One of his dunks in the final quarter was something straight out of Jordan's playback.

The game was one of the highest-viewed high school basketball games on ESPn and the display from Gordon is deemed to be one of the greatest high school performances.

Of course the cameras continually panned to Jordan in the stands and his facial expression was priceless.

"It was great," Gordon replied when asked about dunking on Jordan's sons.

"I just got to show how good I was. I'd rather see my team win than scoring this many or show fantastic play. I'd rather see my team win."

Gordon got drafted to the NBA by the Los Angeles Clippers in 2008 and has had two spells with the team.

He's also represented New Orleans Hornets, Houston Rockets, Phoenix Suns and Philadelphia 76ers in 16 seasons in the NBA and was an NBA three-point contest champion in 2017.
