On March 18th, 1995 Michael Jordan announces to the world his NBA comeback after a 17-month retirement. Check out the media coverage both nationally and locally in Chicago around this historic comeback 19 years ago today.
In 1994–95, Michael Jordan returned in the latter half of the regular season. In his return to Madison Square Garden, Jordan scored 55 points and picked up the victory for the Bulls. This game lifted Jordan’s confidence after a mediocre performance in his “comeback game” against the Indiana Pacers.

It is considered one of the most memorable games in the NBA’s history and a cornerstone in the heated rivalry between the two teams.
