Michael Jordan and wife Yvette Prieto spotted together in Portugal, share candid moment with passionate street performer

Michael Jordan and his wife, Yvette Prieto, were in Portugal on Monday. The couple soaked in the lively but peaceful scene in Lisbon while having a quiet meal. Lucas Pina, a soulful street singer famous in the area, provided the NBA legend with background music to enjoy.

Pina approached Jordan and exchanged a few words with the six-time NBA champ. The spontaneous exchange prompted the artist to dig in and sing a few more from his repertoire. Once the crowd heard his moving voice, a throng quickly gathered.

After the performance, Lucas shared the encounter on Instagram and wrote:

“Michael Jordan on my show out of nowhere, never stop fighting, you never know who’s watching And I still can’t believe it, I’m shaking💀”

The Chicago Bulls legend reportedly has topnotch security whenever he travels abroad. For Lucas Pina to have the chance to talk to him, the Hall of Famer likely allowed his people to let the artist approach him. Yvette Prieto could be seen nodding her head when Pina and her husband talked.

During the performance, Jordan vibed to the music together with the crowd, which appreciated the performance. Pina could not hold back his delight and shared the experience on social media.
