Description
2002-03 Michael Jordan Game Worn Jersey. Intense rarity, ironclad provenance and a spectacular late-career performance by the game's greatest figure makes the offered home white mesh gamer one of the most important Jordans to reach the market in recent memory. Our records show not a single instance of a final-season Michael Jordan jersey presented at auction to date, as MJ and the Wizards have kept tight wraps on the available specimens.

"Jordan 23" fills the verso. "Nike [size] 50" labeling in the tail features the logos of the Wizards and the NBA, and dangles a "Length +4" flap tag to match Jordan's preferred tailoring modifications. Wear is light but definite, appropriate for a single game of superstar use. A 10/10 silver sharpie signature on verso is joined by an Upper Deck serialized holographic authenticating sticker, and the corresponding certificate is present, as is UDA's high-tech "PenC
