Hakeem Olajuwon’s 1994-95 Game-Worn Jersey: A Piece of Basketball History

A Legendary Career

Hakeem “The Dream” Olajuwon, an iconic figure in the world of basketball, was inducted into the Basketball Hall of Fame in 2008. His illustrious career is marked by numerous achievements, including leading the Houston Rockets to back-to-back NBA Championships in 1994 and 1995. During these championship runs, Olajuwon was not only a dominant force on the court but also earned the prestigious NBA Finals MVP award for each series. His performance in the 1994-95 Finals was nothing short of extraordinary, averaging 32.8 points per game, 11.5 rebounds, 5.5 assists, 2 blocks, and 2 steals per game.

This remarkable jersey, worn by Olajuwon during the 1994-95 season, is a testament to his greatness. On the left front tail, it features a “Champion” manufacturer’s tag that reads “DESIGNED & TAILORED 94-95 EXCLUSIVELY FOR HOUSTON ROCKETS BODY LENGTH +4”. Adjacent to this is another Champion size “48” tag with wash instructions, and a materials tag on the left inseam. The jersey is adorned with the NBA logo embroidered on the left breast, and across the chest, it proudly displays “Rockets”. The player number “34” is prominently featured on both the front and back, with “OLAJUWON” emblazoned across the back. All numbering and lettering are executed in red tackle twill, sewn directly onto the white mesh jersey.
