The Trophy Room attempts to replicate the family trophy room within the Jordan family estate. The room has gained popularity among family, friends, and visitors who happen to be fans of the former Chicago Bulls star.

According to the website, the family's trophy room has been a routine venue during holidays such as Christmas.

It displayed the collection of hardware that the six-time champion has collected during his time as an athlete. The website states that the room serves as an inspiration for Jordan and his children.

Marcus Jordan recently celebrated his grandfather's 99th birthday

It's a month of celebration for Marcus Jordan as he spent a family event with his loved ones. Jordan reunited with his mother, Juanita Vanoy, to celebrate the 99th birthday of his maternal grandfather. His mother posted the update on her Instagram account to commemorate the event.

"Happy 99th birthday," Jordan photographed himself and his grandfather. "To my dad."

Marcus' grandfather was proudly wearing a Bulls shirt from the first three-peat of the franchise under MJ's time.

The former Bulls superstar met his first wife while having dinner after a Chicago game in 1985. The couple was introduced by a mutual friend. Vanoy already knew Jordan as she'd seen him play for her hometown's local NBA team.

After years of dating, the two made it official in 1989 while they were in Las Vegas. At that time, they already welcomed their first child, Jeffrey. Together, they became parents to three children, including Jasmine and Marcus.

Troubles caused their relationship to be in jeopardy, which led Valoy to file for divorce in 2002. However, they worked things out and fixed their relationship. It wouldn't be long as the couple filed for divorce in 2006.
