Jordan's NASCAR team surges to Cup front

Published April 9, 2026 · Updated April 9, 2026 · The Guardian

Michael Jordan's 23XI Racing team has surged to the front of NASCAR's Cup series, marking a significant turnaround for the basketball legend's executive career.

After years of frustration as an NBA owner, the basketball legend's 23XI Racing team has emerged as a top contender in NASCAR's premier racing series, reshaping his legacy as a sports executive.

This success contrasts sharply with Jordan's previous ownership experiences, including his tenure with the Washington Wizards and Charlotte Hornets, where the team struggled to achieve consistent on-court results during his leadership.
