CHICAGO _ Michael Jordan's oldest son kindly answers to Jeff, Jeffrey, @HeirJordan13 (on Twitter and Instagram) and "Bones."
"That's my family nickname," he says. "Growing up I was really skinny."
He is reliving those days while watching "The Last Dance," the ESPN documentary series captivating Chicago sports fans.
The first episode featured 8-year-old Jeffrey sitting and dribbling a basketball with his left hand.
"Don't mess up," Michael tells him.
"Sounds about right," Jeffrey says now, chuckling at the memory of his demanding dad.
Jeffrey, 31, works in digital innovation on the Jordan Brand. The six-year veteran of Nike Inc. lives in Oregon and is recently married.
During two interviews lasting nearly an hour, the former University of Illinois guard spoke of growing up in the shadow of a legend, the high point of his hoops life and his hopes for "The Last Dance."
