MEMPHIS, Tenn. — Memphis Grizzlies controlling owner Robert Pera is starting his second season in charge of an NBA team, and he’s already calling out Michael Jordan.

Pera, who had a 1-on-1 preseason challenge against Grizzlies guard Tony Allen canceled several weeks ago, is seeking a game against Jordan with $1 million going to charity.

The challenge came in a Twitter exchange Monday where Pera apologized about the cancellation of the Tony Allen showdown, which would have resulted in a $100,000 donation to St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital.

Someone suggested the Grizzlies owner just change it to an owners match with Pera facing off against Mark Cuban of the Dallas Mavericks.
