Newsy

Michael Jordan, six-time NBA champion, is now a Daytona 500 winner, too.
Tyler Reddick won “The Great American Race” on Sunday with a last-lap pass at Daytona International Speedway that sent Jordan into a frantic celebration. The NBA Hall of Famer bear-hugged Reddick in victory lane and then jointly hoisted the Harley J. Earl trophy with the 23XI Racing driver.
Jordan, who turns 63 on Tuesday, will get a Daytona 500 ring for his birthday and made it known in victory lane he wears a size 13.
“It feels like I won a championship, but until I get my ring, I won’t even know,” Jordan said.
