In 2002, Dražen Petrovic was posthumously enshrined into the Naismith Memorial Basketball Hall of Fame. Petrovic's jersey number was retired by the Nets, and he was named one of the 50 Greatest EuroLeague Contributors in 2008. In 2013, he was voted the best European Basketball player in history by players at the FIBA EuroBasket. Petrovic is considered a crucial part of the vanguard to the present-day mass influx of European players into the NBA. On the front left tail is the Champion manufacturer’s tag size “44” with washing instructions and an adjacent tag reading “YEAR 1991 ID# BODY LENGTH +3”. Across the chest reads “NETS”. The player number “3” appears below and on the back and across the back reads the player name “PETROVIC”. All numbering and lettering is done in red on blue on white tackle twill. On the upper left chest is the official “NBA” logo embroidered. This jersey is properly tagged, was presented to us as game-used and in our opinion shows appropriate use.
