Michael Jordan steps out for date night with rarely-seen wife Yvette Prieto as couple head to NASCAR party launch




NBA legend Michael Jordan and his wife Yvette Prieto enjoyed a rare public appearance last Friday. 


 The power couple hasn't been seen together in public for over a year and stepped out to attend a NASCAR launch party in Nashville, Tennesse. 






Jordan, 60, and Prieto, 44, posed on the red carpet for the event at Electric Jane and were joined by several big-name stars. The NBA GOAT rubbed shoulders with country music star Garth Brooks and NASCAR drivers Bubba Wallace and Kurt Busch. 





 The 14-time NBA All-Star owns and operates 23XI Racing and was there celebrating the start of the NASCAR Ally 400 race weekend. He joined the motorsports business with three-time Daytona 500 winner, Denny Hamlin, to partner to launch their racing team in the fall of 2020. 


 His list of drivers includes Wallace, Tyler Redick, and Busch. Jordan and Prieto met at a Miami nightclub back in 2008. The two dated for years before getting married in 2013. The couple shares twin daughters, Victoria and Ysabel, who are now nine. 





 Before his marriage with Prieto, Jordan married Juanita Vanoy and had three children together. Jeffrey, Marcus, and Jasmine are actively involved in their dad's family business and help develop ideas for their father's iconic Air Jordan line. 





 Jordan is also the majority owner of the Charlotte Hornets but is selling his majority stake in the franchise. It's reported the sale of the team will register a $3billion price tag to a group led by Gabe Plotkin and Rick Schnall. 


 However, Jordan will remain a minority owner as a part of the sale. The Hornets are coming off a down year where they missed the playoffs with a 27-55 this past season which landed them the No.2 pick in the 2023 NBA Draft. 




The Hornets selected Brandon Miller, an athletic scoring wing from the University of Alabama, and hope he and all-star guard LaMelo Ball can carry them to the postseason.
