Craig Hodges Blasts Michael Jordan For ‘Cocaine Circus’ Comments In ‘The Last Dance’
In the first episode of the 10-part docuseries, ‘The Last Dance,’ former Chicago Bulls star Michael Jordan shared personal revelations and those from his days with the team, including a reference to them as a “traveling cocaine circus.” Now, Jordan’s former teammate, Craig Hodges, is blasting him for the comments.
Although Hodges wasn’t a part of the team during the referenced time, Jordan claims it was the early 1980s, he is still “bothered” with 23 sharing such intimate details on the show being watched by millions.

Hodges blasted, “One of the things as players we call this a fraternity. So I’m watching the first episode and I was upset about the ‘cocaine circus.’ That bothered me because I was thinking about the brothers who are on that picture with you who have to explain to their families who are getting ready to watch this great Michael Jordan documentary event and they know you’re on the team, and now you’ve got to explain that to a 12-year-old boy.”
He went on to talk about how Scottie Pippen and Horace Grant were depicted as well. He says, “Then the Scottie Pippen part. Scottie was ‘selfish’. C’mon man, c’mon. And then last night with Horace, that hurt me. I’m letting MJ know that that ain’t right, dude. Horace did not deserve to take the fall for ‘Jordan Rules’. If MJ knows something else and knows Horace’s motive, then tell us how Horace did it for my sake, because I’m your teammate brother, just like they are, and I’m kind of salty how everybody got interviewed but me.”
