August 3, 19993
The body of Jordan's father, James, is found in North Carolina but not identified until August 13. Authorities determine he was killed July 23. Two men are eventually convicted in the slaying. Jordan, who ended the 19993 season averaging 32.6 points to tie Wilt Chamberlain's NBA record of seven straight scoring titles, is devastated.
