Moments like these define the true spirit of the game. After the Chicago Bulls triumphed over the Lakers in Game 5 of the 1991 NBA Finals, a stunned and humbled locker room was met with a legendary presence—Magic Johnson himself. As the Bulls celebrated their first championship win, Magic walked in, shook hands, and congratulated the young underdogs who had just ended the Lakers’ dominant reign of the ‘80s. The respect and camaraderie shown by a veteran like Magic in that moment wasn’t just about basketball—it was about the values that make this game beautiful: respect, sportsmanship, and the passing of the torch. This moment lives on through the Game 5 Ball project, aka $BALL, reminding us that true greatness is built on the shoulders of those who came before. This is more than a ball; it’s a symbol of what teamwork, resilience, and respect are all about. #RespectTheGame #Game5Ball #BALL
