Of course, the Chicago Bulls legend isn\u2019t nearly as good a golfer as he was a basketball player, something that Stephen A Smith once shockingly used to question MJ\u2019s greatness on the greens. Seemingly offended on MJ\u2019s part by the question, DJ Khaled recently decided to burst the ESPN analyst\u2019s bubble in his own hilarious way.<\/p>\n<p data-type=\"content\" data-variant=\"p\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn-wp.thesportsrush.com\/2024\/04\/87ab024a-untitled-design-2024-04-27t143548.512.jpg?format=auto&amp;w=3840&amp;q=75\" alt=\"Don't Break My Heart&quot;: DJ Khaled Cannot Believe Stephen A Smith would  Question Michael Jordan's Greatness On The Golf Course - The SportsRush\" \/><\/p>\n<p id=\"article-content-block-2\" data-type=\"content\" data-variant=\"p\">Stephen A Smith wanted to know just how good of a golfer Jordan is. As valid as this question may seem, DJ Khaled was taken aback. While promoting his charity golf tournament, the American record producer couldn\u2019t stop raving about Jordan the golfer. The following is the incredibly amusing conversation they had, while on the show\u00a0<em>\u2018First Take\u2019<\/em>\u00a0together.<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"DJ Khaled learning from Rory McElroy + Michael Jordan\u2019s NEXT LEVEL golf game?! | First Take\" width=\"790\" height=\"444\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/iCAa9HNuidQ?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n<blockquote id=\"article-content-block-3\" data-type=\"content\" data-variant=\"blockquote\"><p>Stephen A Smith:\u00a0<em>\u201cI know he on the golf course but his game is on that level?

However, given the Grammy-winning producer\u2019s reaction, there is likely quite a bit of exaggeration at play in his statement. So, perhaps his words should be taken with a grain of salt.<\/p>\n<p id=\"article-content-block-5\" data-type=\"content\" data-variant=\"p\">With that said, what did the actual pros of the sport think of the NBA icon\u2019s game on the green?<\/p>\n<h2>Is Michael Jordan good at golf?

Michael Jordan is also a whiz on the golf course, (though, still not as great as the kind he was on the basketball court). And who knows?
