US basketball legend Michael Jordan has revealed his aversion to social networking sites, saying that being 'old school, he is neither a 'Twitterer' nor a 'Twerker' or a 'Facebooker'.

Jordan, who recently turned 50, made the comment in a promotional YouTube video produced for the new National Basketball Association (NBA) 2K14 video game.

According to Mashable, Jordan asked the question 'what is twerking' despite US actress and singer Miley Cyrus making the move infamous in a controversial performance for the MTV Video Music Awards this year.

Jordan has raked in a whopping 80 million dollars last year through endorsement deals alone, the report added.
