Which athletes are Wizards fans?
Cam Whitmore's tie to Washington comes from a report rather than a statement of his own. Yahoo Sports, in a piece that originally appeared on NBC Sports Washington, carried the line "Just know that the Washington Wizards still have a special place in my heart." The outlet's account is the source here, so it stands as reported, not as something Whitmore confirmed himself.
Michael Jordan's link to the Wizards is ownership, not a stated fandom. He was a part-owner of the franchise from 2000 to 2001. ESPN reported on September 25, 2001, that "NBA rules also required Jordan to sell his ownership stake in the Wizards." That is the public record of his stake, and it counts him as an owner of the team, not as a fan who has said so.
Where does Michael Jordan's tie to Washington come from?
Jordan was born in New York City on February 17, 1963, and attended Emsley A. Laney High School in Wilmington, North Carolina. Neither place is Washington. His connection to the Wizards comes from the stake he held in the club, and from the fact that the Wizards appear among his NBA teams alongside the Chicago Bulls.
