Michael Jordan looking to sell majority stake in Charlotte Hornets
The six-time NBA champion, Jordan, paid a hefty $275 million to become majority owner of the Charlotte Hornets, then known as the Bobcats, in 2010.
Despite discussions to sell, it is believed an agreement is yet to be finalized.
Jordan intends to continue being a part of the franchise but in a minority role, if the sale goes through.

Big picture for the Hornets
The Hornets have only tasted postseason basketball once in that time and once again, look set to miss the playoffs this season.
They have been hampered by injuries, especially to Star guard LaMelo Ball, who is out for the remainder of the season with a fractured ankle he suffered in February, and forward Gordon Hayward missed time due to a fracture in his left shoulder he sustained in November.
The Hornets are currently 22-49 and sit 14th in the Eastern Conference.
