In 1992, Michael Jordan, was a member of the star-studded squad that was dubbed the “Dream Team”, which included Larry Bird and Magic Johnson. The team won two gold medals: the first in the 1992 Tournament of the Americas, and the second in the 1992 Summer Olympics. Jordan was the only player to start all eight games in the Olympics, averaged 14.9 ppg, and finished second on the team in scoring. He was undefeated in the four tournaments he played for the United States national team, and Jordan won all 30 games he took part in.
In sports, revolution came at the 1992 Summer Olympics. That was when pro athletes were first allowed to compete and when two iconic words entered the sports lexicon: Dream Team. The 1992 Dream Team was by far the most dominant, the most important and the most influential team the world has ever seen. Despite fiercely competing against one another in their regular pro games, these superstars seamlessly gelled together on the court.
Over the course of their careers, these dozen Dreamers would amass a combined 23 NBA championships, 15 MVP Awards and 117 All-Star appearances. In Barcelona, Team USA steamrolled the competition to win gold, beating Angola, Croatia, Germany, Brazil, Spain, Puerto Rico and Lithuania by an astounding average of 44 points per game. Their epic performance caused a soaring global interest in basketball.
