Description

Circa 1983-84 Tom Chambers Game Worn Seattle Supersonics Warmup Jacket. Tom Chambers was a 6-10 athletic marvel who was one of the sport's first big threes. Preferring the long distance bomb and spot up jumpers to inside post play, Chambers' high percentage shots were mostly confined to rim-rattling slams. If you want an idea of how spectacular this man was in the air, have a look at his dunk against the Knicks in 1989 when he jumped over Mark Jackson's head.

Many people might be surprised to learn that Tom played eighteen years in the NBA, accumulating over 20,000 career points, four All-Star berths, four All-NBA selections, and one All-Star Game MVP. In his most productive season, he averaged 27.2 points while shooting .501 from the field.

The beautiful warm-up jacket offered here dates from Tom's first or second season in the Emerald City, when he was young, established star with his own legion of loyal followers, and uncorking mind-blowing dunks nightly. The green/gold/white snap-front knit displays the team logo and "24" on the front and "Chambers" arched across the back, all screened on in green/gold/white. Three tags are neatly tucked away in the interior button path: a "Medalist Sand-Knit 46" label, an exclusive tag with "24" in vintage black sharpie, and a "4" LB" swatch. Best of all, however, is the oversized NBA logo patch (6x2.75") which is sewn onto the left sleeve. This patch was used during the 1981-82 to 1984-85 era. The garment exhibits fine wear with evidence of multiple washings. The bottom half the top snap is no longer present but could be easily replaced if the winning bidder so desired. Fantastic display appeal. LOA from Heritage Auctions.
