These jerseys are not just garments; they are symbols of the players’ contributions to the game and the enduring legacy of the NBA.

Ed Pinckney’s Jersey: A Classic Representation

The Ed Pinckney jersey is a testament to the craftsmanship and tradition of the Sacramento Kings. On the left front tail, the jersey proudly displays the “Sand-Knit” manufacturer’s size 40 tag, a mark of authenticity and quality. Above it, the “Sand-Knit” “Designed & Tailored Exclusively for the SACRAMENTO KINGS” tag further emphasizes its exclusivity. The jersey features four strip tags: “87,” “2E 2L.B.,” “54,” and a blank one, each adding to its unique identity.

Across the front, “KINGS” is emblazoned in blue on red tackle twill, a striking visual that captures the team’s spirit. The player number “54” is prominently displayed below and on the back, while the player name “PINCKNEY” is screen printed in blue on a white nameplate. The official “NBA” embroidered logo on the left breast completes this iconic piece.

Adjacent to it is another Champion tag, “Designed 1993-1994 & Tailored Exclusively for Sacramento Kings BODY LENGTH +4,” highlighting its tailored fit.

Like Pinckney’s jersey, “KINGS” is displayed in white on red tackle twill across the front, with the player number “42” below and on the back. The player name “WILLIAMS” is elegantly crafted in white tackle twill. The upper left breast features the official “NBA” embroidered logo, a symbol of the league’s prestige. Notably, this jersey is autographed on the back number in silver marker, with the signature rating a 9, adding a personal touch to this remarkable piece.
