He made the game-winning jump shot in the 1982 NCAA Championshipgame against Georgetown, which was led by future NBA rival Patrick Ewing. Jordan later described this shot as the major turning point in his Basketball career. During his three seasons at North Carolina, he averaged 17.7 ppg on 54.0% shooting, and added 5.0rebounds per game (rpg). He was selected by consensus to the NCAA All-American First Team in both his sophomore (1983) and junior (1984) seasons. After winning the Naismithand the Wooden College Player of the Year awards in 1984, Jordan left North Carolina one year before his scheduled graduation to enter the 1984 NBA Draft. The Chicago Bullsselected Jordan with the third overall pick, after Hakeem Olajuwon (Houston Rockets) andSam Bowie (Portland Trail Blazers).
