Darrell Griffith’s Iconic Utah Jazz Jersey

A Symbol of Excellence

Darrell Griffith, affectionately known as “Dr. Dunkenstein,” left an indelible mark on the Utah Jazz and the NBA. His No. 35 jersey, now retired by the Jazz, stands as a testament to his remarkable contributions to the team. This particular jersey is a piece of basketball memorabilia that captures the essence of Griffith’s illustrious career.

Detailed Craftsmanship

The jersey features a “Medalist Sand-Knit” size “42” manufacturer’s tag on the front left tail, a hallmark of quality and authenticity. Adjacent to this is a white swatch with the number “35,” further emphasizing its connection to Griffith. The right inseam houses a “100% NYLON” tag with washing instructions, ensuring the garment’s preservation over time.

  • Team Name: “JAZZ” emblazoned across the front.
  • Player Number: “35” prominently displayed on both the front and back, painted in vibrant yellow.
  • Player Name: “GRIFFITH” in yellow tackle twill, sewn directly onto the green mesh jersey.

The Legacy of Darrell Griffith

Griffith’s impact on the court was profound, and his jersey serves as a reminder of his dynamic playing style and contributions to the game.
