Basketball player Michael Jordan is rumored to have taken delivery of a new Gulfstream G650ER, a popular business jet among the rich and famous.

What Happened: The jet, rumored to belong to the basketball player, features N236MJ on the tailnumber, Business Insider reported on Wednesday.

According to the Federal Aviation Administration, the jet with that particular tail number is owned by MJ Air LLC at the address of Jump Management – the family and business office of the player.
