2. April 4, 1989 – 33 points, 12 assists, 10 rebounds, 6 steals
Not known for amassing triple-doubles, one of Jordan’s 28 career triple-doubles came against Charlotte. It was the first of three triple-doubles against Charlotte but it was also the best of the bunch.
Jordan shot just 15 times, hitting 10 of those field goals while going 13-of-15 at the line. His performance led the Bulls to a 121-101 win. The six steals also tied for the most Jordan had in a triple-double as he briefly flirted with even a quadruple-double.
Jordan’s game also helped the Bulls overcome a poor shooting night as a team as the rest of Chicago shot just 33-for-77 from the field. Forty-one free throw attempts helped ease the shooting woes as well.
