Scott Burrell warned parents about plane scene in 'The Last Dance'
Former Chicago Bulls forward Scott Burrell made sure to give his parents a heads-up about Michael Jordan exposing his love of partying in ESPN's "The Last Dance" documentary.
In one scene on the team plane, Jordan jokingly calls Burrell "Dennis Rodman Jr." and claims he "never gets his sleep" because he's out all night.
"My mom and dad are gonna watch this, M," Burrell tells Jordan.

Burrell told CBS Sports he knew the scene was coming and warned his parents ahead of time. He did worry about what his wife, SNY sports reporter Jeane Coakley, and her parents would think about it, though.

Coakley didn't appear at all bothered by the scene, and tweeted that she wants to hear more about "baby Rodman."
