Joe Dumars’ 1989-90 Game-Used Jersey: A Piece of NBA History
An Iconic Season for a Legendary Player
In the annals of basketball history, few seasons stand out as prominently as the 1989-90 campaign for Hall of Famer Joe Dumars. Averaging an impressive 27.3 points per game during the playoffs, Dumars was instrumental in leading the Detroit Pistons to their first NBA Championship. His stellar performance culminated in a 4-0 sweep over the Los Angeles Lakers, earning him the prestigious NBA Finals MVP honors. This season also saw Dumars being named to the NBA All-Defensive First Team, further cementing his status as a defensive stalwart.

This particular jersey is not just a piece of basketball memorabilia; it is a testament to Dumars’ extraordinary achievements. Presented to us as game-used, this jersey is a rare find, featuring a factory error on the exclusive tagging, making it 100% original. The left front tail proudly displays the “Champion” manufacturer’s size 42 tag.
