As Bernie Bickerstaff was honored Wednesday night after coaching his final game for Charlotte, Bobcats part-owner Michael Jordan appeared on videotape thanking him. It was uncertain if Jordan was in the building.
A few minutes later, Bickerstaff pointed to the suite where Jordan may or may not have been sitting.
"He's probably somewhere smoking a cigar," Bickerstaff said, joking.
Jordan was rarely seen by fans and media in his first year with the team.
