$24,995.00
Offered here is a Michael Jordan jersey dating to MJ’s spectacular 1996-97 season. The Chicago Bulls shooting guard led the NBA in scoring, at 29.6 points per game, while adding 5.9 rebounds, 4.3 assists, and 1.7 steals per contest in the regular season. He led the Bulls to a 69-13 record, just three games behind their all-time record win total from the season prior. Jordan upped his game in the playoffs, dropping 31.1 points per game with 7.9 rebounds and 4.8 assists. The Bulls swept the Bullets in the first round of the playoffs before dispatching the Atlanta Hawks and Miami Heat in five games, apiece in the next two series'. Jordan was, unsurprisingly, the difference for the Bulls in their six-game victory over the Utah Jazz in the Finals.
This Michael Jordan game issued red 1996-97 Chicago Bulls Road jersey features “BULLS” sewn on the front in black-on-white tackle twill and “JORDAN” on the back in black-on-white tackle-twill. Jordan’s iconic number “23” is sewn onto the front and back in the same manner. The jersey is size 46, and has a “BODY LENGTH +3” tag, indicating that it was tailored for Jordan’s specifications. The open arms and collar have a white, black, and red-ribbed border. The NBA logo patch is sewn onto the left shoulder in gold, which was unique for the 1996-97 season, commemorating the 50th Anniversary of the NBA. Jordan has signed this jersey in black marker to the left of his number on the reverse. This jersey comes with an LOA from MEARS (316480), receiving a grade of A5. It also comes with an LOA from JSA (Z89845) for Jordan’s signature.
