Michael Jordan is a relatively private person. His media availability, as an NBA owner, generally takes place just before the season begins, doing a series of sit-down interviews with local and national media (like this one from ESPN).
But to mark the opening of the NBA season, the Hornets are having an #MJTakeover on Twitter, Instagram and Facebook. What would the G.O.A.T. say in his first tweet? If you had a "LOL," please head to the cashier's window for your payout.

Oh, and get your fill now, because you won't see this again.
Michael Jordan taking over the @Hornets feed today. Doesn't love social media, said this might be a "one time only" thing.
