1984-85 Michael Jordan Rookie Season Chicago Bulls Ticket Collection Lot of 30, PSA Authentic. Michael Jordan transformed a city, league and the entire sporting world when he entered into the NBA in 1984. Few fans wasted their time going to watch the putrid Bulls in the early to mid '80's. The franchise was going nowhere until Michael Jordan turned everything around. The tongue wagging 6-6 guard from North Carolina revolutionized the game with his inspired play and also made wearing basketball shoes fashionable.

Jordan's impact on the game rocked Chicago Stadium as fans eventually flocked to the arena to get a glimpse of the next big thing. Heritage Auctions set a record when it realized $33,600 for Jordan's NBA debut ticket in August of 2018. This collection of tickets originates from MJ's first year at the professional level. Uniformly, the tickets are encapsulated by PSA and have been deemed "authentic" by the experts. We will break down this incredible lot of thirty tickets from Jordan's opening act by date and the amount of points Jordan scored. All have a fold mark or creasing unless noted.
