Now that he's no longer in charge of running an NBA team, the Chicago Bulls legend can truly enjoy some rest and relaxation. He has been doing so on his European trip with his wife of ten years.

As most know, Jordan and Johnson have a storied history. While MJ was making his rise with the Chicago Bulls in the 80s, Magic was building a dynasty with Kareem Abdul-Jabbar and the "showtime" Lakers.

When Magic's career was coming to an end, Jordan was who he passed the torch to. While they might have been competitive on the court, the two had a good relationship away from the game.

The pair of legends were two of the most notable names on the "Dream Team." To this day, that Olympic squad is still viewed as the greatest basketball team ever assembled.

Moments like this are proof of Jordan and Magic being close friends. Even all these years later, the two keep in touch and enjoy moments together.
