NBA icons Charles Barkley and Michael Jordan have taken a significant step toward rebuilding their friendship, according to a report published Saturday.
The New York Post story says the former teammates, who had not been on speaking terms for 14 years, recently re-established contact. Specifics of the interaction were not disclosed, but the move is described as the first meaningful progress in ending their long-running estrangement.
The relationship between the two Hall of Famers had been frozen since a well-publicized fallout over a decade ago. Saturday’s report did not detail future plans, but indicated both sides are open to further conversations.
No timeline was provided for additional meetings or public appearances together.
