Relive the action from November 3, 1995, as the Chicago Bulls hosted the Charlotte Hornets in their season opener at the United Center. In front of a packed crowd of 23,862, Michael Jordan put on an offensive clinic, scoring 42 points on 16-of-29 shooting, dishing out 7 assists, and setting the tone for the Bulls’ legendary 1995–96 season.

Charlotte came out strong, leading 48–40 at halftime behind the play of Larry Johnson and Glen Rice. But the third quarter belonged to Chicago — a dominant 40-point offensive output turned the tide, with Jordan, Scottie Pippen, and Ron Harper sparking the run, and Dennis Rodman controlling the glass.

The Bulls closed out the Hornets 105–91, beginning their march toward what would become an NBA-record 72-win season. Watch the key highlights, from Jordan’s mid-range mastery to Rodman’s relentless rebounding, and see how Chicago’s championship mentality shone from Game 1.
