Fila Sneaker Launch
Chris was stopped because he had marijuana in his baggage. He was actually traveling to Barbados to do some promotion for the sportswear company Fila, who then later dropped the basketball star. However, Chris filed a suit against the company for breach of contract and he was awarded $2.61 million in the end.

Timeout Trouble
In the 1993 NCAA Division I Men’s Basketball Championship Game, Chris infamously called a timeout which ultimately cost the Wolverines the title. With only 11 seconds remaining in the fourth quarter, the Michigan Wolverines trailing the North Carolina Tar Heels 73-71, Chris decided to call for a timeout, but what he did not realize is that his team had none left…! This not only led to a technical foul but also a huge loss for the Michigan Wolverines. We bet he still beats himself up for what happened until now… Poor guy!
