NBA icon Michael Jordan, 60, enjoys vacation in Italy with his wife and twin daughters on a luxurious yacht costing $600,000 per day, complete with extravagant parties

NBA legend Michael Jordan has been seen in Italy, enjoying a vacation with his wife Yvette Prieto and their twin daughters.

The 60-year-old, who secured six NBA championships with the Chicago Bulls from 1991 to 1998, is currently spending time with his family on the island of Sicily.

Jordan, wearing an Audemars Piguet Royal Oak Offshore watch valued at approximately $40,000, was spotted boarding a luxury yacht with Yvette and their identical twin daughters, Ysabel and Victoria.

Jordan’s incredible achievements on the basketball court have made him one of the most successful and recognizable athletes in the world, though he now maintains a low profile.

He and Yvette first met at a Miami nightclub in 2008, and Jordan proposed to the Cuban-born model three years later. They married in 2013 and welcomed their daughters, now nine, a year later.

Just last month, MJ and Prieto, 44, enjoyed a rare date night in Nashville to celebrate the beginning of the NASCAR Ally 400 race weekend.\

In recent weeks, Jordan has made headlines with reports suggesting he is selling his majority stake in the Charlotte Hornets for a staggering $3 billion, after owning the NBA team for 13 years.

Recently, the team selected Brandon Miller as the No. 2 overall pick in the 2023 Draft. Although Jordan is reportedly eager to step down from his role as majority owner, he is expected to retain a minority stake in the team.

Jordan initially purchased a minority stake in the Hornets in 2006 and became the majority owner in 2010.

His tenure with the Hornets has been marked by disappointing results, unfortunate deals, and poor management, including his own decisions.

Since his first full season of majority ownership in 2010-11, the Charlotte Hornets have put up a combined record of 423-600 – with only three winning seasons.

In that time, they made only two playoff appearances in 2014 and in 2016 – both ending in the first round through losses to the Miami Heat.

Since that last playoff appearance in 2016, the Hornets never finished higher than ninth in the Eastern Conference.

It all culminated in last season with a 27-55 record – seeing Charlotte finish 14th in the conference and last in their own division.
