TEAMS: Charlotte Bobcats

Via Cosby Sweaters:

Justin Bieber’s latest stop on his “Believe” tour took him to Time Warner Cable Arena in Charlotte where he got to meet one his idols, Michael Jordan, and even snap a few photos.

From the looks of the pictures and Bieber’sTwitter timeline, it seems to be Justin who enjoys the game of basketball, who was definitely in awe.
