My hero is Earvin "Magic" Johnson. Magic is hard working on and off the court. Magic was a great basketball player. Johnson played thirteen years with the Los Angeles Lakers.He was also a generous and dedicated businessman.

On the court! 

On the court Magic Johnson was a symbol to a physical domination, unselfish, the way he stole the ball from the team he was playing against, his perfect passes and assists were gorgeous.
Off the court! 

Johnson shocked the world when he announced that he had HIV (human immunodeficiency virus). He survived the horrible virus after twenty hard and horrible years! Did you know, over 1.2 million Americans have HIV.

Achievements

 In 905 NBA games Magic scored over 17,707points, 6,559 rebounds, and 10,141 assists. Magic was the tallest point guard in the NBA at the time and led five teams to championships. If you think it's over, you are totally wrong. He was also a twelve time all star, and even a gold medal winner in the 1992 Olympic Games.

Why is Julie's Magic Johnson my hero

I love his unselfishness and kindness, his endurance and his happiness. And I wish everybody would be like him.
