Michael Jordan’s broken ribs take physical toll on former Lakers star

Metta Shiping once broke Michael Jordan’s ribs. As crazy as it sounds, thanks to Sam Smith chicago tribune, the news was exposed.When Mehta was asked about this online run back On Shams Charania’s show, he hesitated to elaborate on the point further, but eventually gave in.

Mehta said it was during a one-on-one match with Jordan. He said he was 18 or 19 years old when it happened and he never wanted the story to get out. Mehta was in Jordan’s gym with some other young men, including LeBron James. Metta ended up pushing his elbow into Jordan’s ribs in an effort to stop Jordan from passing the ball.

The incident hit Mehta hard. He said, “When I found out I (Michael Jordan) had broken ribs, I was in bed for about two days…I was sick.”

However, MJ decided to call him and let him know that things like this happen all the time in the sports world, so he shouldn’t worry too much. He said, “Then Mike called me and said ‘Hey man, it’s okay, this happened, I want you to keep coming back to the gym.'”
