Magic Johnson fell in love with basketball at an early age watching his heroes like Earl Monroe.

A local sportswriter coined the nickname “Magic” when at the age of 15 he scored a triple-double with 36 points, 18 rebounds, and 16 assists. The name was solidified his senior year when he led his team to the state championship.

Magic Johnson had offers from every single high profile college but decided to stay close to home and attend Michigan State University. In 1979, Magic led his team to the NCAA finals where they faced Indiana State University and their star player Larry Bird. Their face-off became the most-watched college basketball game ever televised and launched one of the greatest rivalries in sports history. Michigan State went on to defeat Indiana and Johnson was named Most Outstanding Player of the Final Four.

Magic Johnson was the first overall pick of 1979 draft, chosen by The Los Angeles Lakers. In his rookie season, Magic Johnson and teammate Kareem Abdul-Jabbar led the Lakers to the NBA championship where Magic was named the MVP of the NBA Finals. Magic won five NBA Championships with the Lakers in the years 1980, 1982, 1985, 1987, and 1988.

He was the three-time NBA Finals MVP in 1980, 1982, and 1987. He was the three-time NBA Most Valuable Player in 1987, 1989, and 1990. He went to the All-Star game 12 times and was a two time MVP of the All-Star game.  He is considered the greatest point guard of all time.

Magic Johnson career was cut short by his 1991 contraction of the HIV virus.

Magic Johnson returned to the NBA as the coach of the Lakers near the end of the 1993-94 NBA season. He replaced Randy Pfund and Bill Bertka at the urging of team owner Jerry Buss.

The Lakers played well under Johnson’s coaching initially, winning five of their first six games, but after losing the next five games, Johnson announced that he was resigning as coach after the season.

The Lakers finished the season on a ten-game losing streak, and Johnson’s final record as a head coach was 5–11. He said that it was never his dream to coach, so instead, he purchased a 5% share of the team in June 1994.

During the 1995-96 season, then 36-year-old Magic Johnson attempted a comeback as a player and re-joined the Lakers for that season. The Lakers had a record of 22–10 in the games Johnson played, and he considered his final comeback “a success.” After the Lakers lost to the Houston Rockets in the first round of the playoffs, Johnson retired permanently.

In 905 NBA games, Magic Johnson tallied 17,707 points, 6,559 rebounds, and 10,141 assists, for career averages of 19.5 points, 7.2 rebounds, and 11.2 assists per game, the highest assists per game average in NBA history.

Magic Johnson shares the single-game playoff record for assists (24), holds the Finals record for assists in a game (21), and has the most playoff assists (2,346).

He is the only player to average 12 assists in an NBA Finals series, achieving it six times. He holds the All-Star Game single-game record for assists (22) and the All-Star Game record for career assists (127).

Magic Johnson Retirement:

After announcing his infection in November 1991, Magic Johnson created the Magic Johnson Foundation to help combat HIV. Magic Johnson has been an advocate for HIV/AIDS prevention and safe sex, as well as an entrepreneur, philanthropist, and broadcaster. Magic Johnson public announcement of his HIV-positive status in 1991 shocked the public and went a long way towards dispelling the stereotype at the time that HIV was a “gay disease” that heterosexuals didn’t have to worry about.

Magic Johnson Wife:

Magic Johnson married Earlitha “Cookie” Kelly in a small ceremony in Lansing, Michigan in 1991. The couple has a son, Earvin III (EJ), born in 1992, who is openly gay.
