Kevin Love’s UCLA Jersey: A Symbol of Collegiate Excellence

A Glorious Season at UCLA

In the annals of college basketball, few players have left as indelible a mark as Kevin Love during his time at UCLA. In July 2006, Love committed to the Bruins, setting the stage for a remarkable collegiate career. By the end of the 2007–2008 regular season, Love had earned the distinction of being named a first-team All-American, Pac-10 Freshman of the Year, and Player of the Year. His leadership was instrumental in guiding UCLA to both the regular season Pacific 10 Conference Championship and the Conference Tournament Championship, securing a #1 seed in the 2008 NCAA Men’s Division I Basketball Tournament.

The Iconic Jersey

The jersey in question is a testament to Love’s extraordinary season. On the left front tail, it bears the “ADIDAS” manufacturer’s size 50 tag, with an attached “2” L.B.” flag tag. The front proudly displays “UCLA,” with the “ULA” in blue tackle twill and the “C” in yellow on blue tackle twill. Below and on the back is the player number “42” in blue tackle twill, while the back features the player name “LOVE” in blue tackle twill. Notably, the upper left breast is adorned with the “NCAA” patch.

• Game-Used Authenticity: Presented to us as game-used, the jersey shows signs of wear, with an extra layer of material added inside, yet no other alterations.
