Michael Jordan knows winning.<\/p>\n
Lately, he’s taken that pursuit to the NASCAR Cup Series, where he’s the principal owner of 23XI Racing.<\/p>\n
Jordan is joined in the ownership group by current driver Denny Hamlin, but Hamlin actually competes on the track for Joe Gibbs Racing.<\/p>\n
That leaves Jordan with a stable of up-and-coming drivers for the 23XI team.<\/p>\n
Who drives for Michael Jordan with 23XI Racing?<\/p>\n
Jordan has three full-time drivers in 2026:<\/p>\n
No. 23 Bubba WallaceNo. 45 Tyler ReddickNo. 35 Riley Herbst<\/p>\n
23XI Racing also has Corey Heim, who drives the No. 67 car, on board in a part-time role.<\/p>\n
Reddick won the first two races of the 2026 NASCAR Cup Series season. First, he won the Daytona 500, and then it was the Autotrader 400 in Atlanta.<\/p>\n
Wallace has run near the front in each of the first two races of the season, as well.<\/p>\n
The NBA legend Jordan has gotten plenty of camera time in the early going as his drivers have been in or near the front of the field late in races.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Jordan grew up going to races with his dad, so this is a passion project a long time coming for MJ, and his race team is developing into a very strong one.<\/p>\n
