Future Hall of Famer Kobe Bryant is the all-time leading scorer in one of the most recognizable franchises in all of sports. Bryant has won five NBA championships, two NBA Finals MVP awards and one regular season MVP award. The 16-time All-Star led the NBA in scoring twice and was named to 11 All-NBA First Teams. On the front left tail is the “Nike” manufacturer’s tag with size “52” and flag tag “LENGTH +4”. On the outer left seam is a tag reading “DRY•FIT”. On the left inseam are two tags reading “100% POLYESTER” with wash instructions and “2000-01”. On the left chest is the official “NBA” logo embroidered in red, white and blue. Across the front reads “LAKERS” in gold tackle twill with a white tackle twill outline. Adjacent below and on back is the player number “8” in white tackle twill with a gold tackle twill border. Across the back is the player name “BRYANT” in gold on white tackle twill. Bryant has signed the front of the jersey in black marker, in our opinion the signature rates a 7. Due to the rush nature of this autograph and lack of characters, JSA was uncomfortable forming an opinion. The jersey is properly tagged, was presented to us as game-used and in our opinion shows excellent use.
