Because that's the number he wanted. Jordan wanted to prove he was at least half as good as his brother Larry, who wore #45 in high school, and continuously beat Michael in one on one as children.

He wears the number 23 jersey because his brother Larry wore 45 when he played and he wanted to be at least half the player he was.
