Allen Iverson’s Game-Worn Jersey: A Testament to Greatness
A Legendary Career
Allen Iverson, a name synonymous with excellence and tenacity, lived up to the expectations as the No. 1 overall pick in the 1996 NBA Draft. His illustrious career as a point guard is marked by numerous accolades, including leading the league in scoring four times and having his iconic No. 3 jersey retired by the Philadelphia 76ers. In 2016, Iverson’s contributions to the sport were immortalized with his induction into the Naismith Memorial Basketball Hall of Fame.
The Jersey: A Piece of Basketball History
This remarkable jersey, worn by Iverson during the 2004-2005 NBA season, is a piece of basketball memorabilia that captures the essence of his career. The front left tail features the Reebok manufacturer’s tag, accompanied by four flag tags indicating the size “44”, “+2 LENGTH”, “2004-2005”, and “PLAYDRY”. The official “NBA” logo is embroidered on the upper left chest, adding to its authenticity.
Across the front, “SIXERS” is emblazoned in white on red on black tackle twill, with the logo in silver on blue on black tackle twill. Below, the player number “3” stands prominently. The back of the jersey showcases “IVERSON” and the number “3” in white on red tackle twill. Iverson’s signature, in black marker, graces the back, with the signature rated an 8 in our opinion.
Accompanying Shorts and Provenance
Included with the jersey is a matching pair of size “42” shorts, featuring the player number “3” handwritten on the tag in black marker. This uniform is properly tagged, was presented to us as game-used and in our opinion shows appropriate use. The ensemble is accompanied by an ALOA from JSA, further solidifying its significance.
