$99,995.00
Presented is a pair of Nike Jordan Brand basketball sneakers used by NBA Hall of Famer and basketball icon Michael Jordan during the 1988-89 NBA regular season. Jordan's evolution into the Association's leading scorer was already complete by year no. 5 of his already impressive career; coming off his first MVP Award, Jordan led the Association in scoring for the third consecutive year with an average of 32.5 points per game, while adding 8.0 total rebounds and 8.0 assists in 81 games played. The sneakers exhibit a black/gray/white colorway and have been signed by Jordan, who has penned his flowing signature in black marker across each toe box. Accompanying the sneakers is an LOA from Sports Investors Authentication, who state that they "believe these sneakers very closely align with the shoes Michael Jordan wore during a Bulls' road game against the Hawks on February 25, 1989." In that game, the Hawks defeated the Bulls 125-95, with Jordan recording a team-high 18 points with 5 total rebounds and 3 assists, as well as 3 steals. SIA concludes, "The clarity of the photos from this game do not allow us to say with absolute certainty that these shoes are photo matched. However, all evidence supports and suggests these being an apparent match to the sneakers worn by Michael Jordan during the Bulls' road game against the Rockets on February. 25, 1989." The sneakers exhibit extensive wear. Size "13" manufacturer's tag are affixed to the interior of the sneakers. Letter of Opinion from Sports Investors Authentication. LOAs from Beckett (AE04179, AE04180) for signatures. Full Letter COA's from GOAT Authentics. This originally had an LOP from the Ball Boy but it was misplaced.
