Earvin Johnsonhe was born in Lansing, Michigan, on 14th August in 1959. He was an American basketball player who is considered one of the best basketball players in history. He played for the Los Angeles Lakers in the NBA from 1979 to 1991 and for a short period of 1996. This player only played for this club (Los Ángeles Lakers) in his career.
The nickname "Magic" is because since he was a child he has loved playing basketball and when he was fifteen he joined the basketball team of his high school and scored a triple-double with 36 points, 16 rebounds and 16 assists, a journalist called him with the nickname "Magic".
At the start of the 1992-1993 season the medical assistants informed him of his disease: they told him that he was a carrier of HIV. His retreat from basketball was immediate, he communicated it in a press conference that he was a carrier of HIV and that he would devote his life to the fight against this disease. However, Johnson was selected by the public to play the All-Star Game that season, facing Isiah Thomas and the incredible Michael Jordan. He won the MVP of the game.
This person is a role model of excellence and happiness and for me the best basketball player in history.
Happy Birthday, Magic Johnson (The Post Game)
