Nike Michael Jordan: The man who convinced Nike to bet on Michael Jordan, ET BrandEquity

Nike Michael Jordan: 40 years ago, it was Sonny Vaccaro, a Nike employee, who convinced the sporting apparel behemoth to devote all the money it had earmarked on recruiting future NBA players on just one man — Michael Jordan, then a 21-year-old rising star. That decision paid off in spades. Nike’s partnership with Jordan has grown into an empire, with $5.1 billion in sales last year from the company’s Jordan brand alone.
