Despite the controversies to his name, OJ Simpson was one of the best NFL players. After a prolonged battle with prostate cancer, Juice passed away, surrounded by his children and grandchildren. Since he was one of the most iconic public figures of his time, an old interview of Simpson with\u00a0Michael Jordan\u00a0from 1988 has resurfaced.<\/p>\n<p data-type=\"content\" data-variant=\"p\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn-wp.thesportsrush.com\/2024\/04\/473e677e-untitled-design-2024-04-12t003644.935.jpg?format=auto&amp;w=3840&amp;q=75\" alt=\"Rare Footage of Michael Jordan Candidly Interviewing OJ Simpson Resurfaces\" \/><\/p>\n<p id=\"article-content-block-2\" data-type=\"content\" data-variant=\"p\">In the clip, Jordan and Simpson were talking about the late legend\u2019s confusion with his name and his habit of getting into trouble from a very young age. Simpson told the NBA legend that growing up, he was affectionately called OJ in his house while his full name was Orenthal James Simpson.<\/p>\n<p id=\"article-content-block-3\" data-type=\"content\" data-variant=\"p\">He said that until his third grade, he didn\u2019t know that his original name was Orenthal as he was used to being addressed as OJ. This confusion led to a hilarious situation in his classroom where he was clueless when his teacher called his name.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">When Michael Jordan interviewed OJ Simpson in 1988 <\/p>\n<p>OJ said he didn&#39;t know his name was Orenthal until the 3rd grade. <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/RIVTA6iTsP\">pic.twitter.com\/RIVTA6iTsP<\/a><\/p>\n<p>&mdash; Ballislife.com (@Ballislife) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/Ballislife\/status\/1778446835973034036?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">April 11, 2024<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/p>\n<p id=\"article-content-block-5\" data-type=\"content\" data-variant=\"p\">Jordan also asked Simpson about his personality as a troublemaker.
