The Legendary 1992 United States Men’s Olympic “Dream” Team Jersey
An Iconic Piece of Basketball History
The 1992 United States Men’s Olympic “Dream” Team is widely regarded as the greatest basketball team ever assembled. Competing in Barcelona, Spain, this team was a powerhouse of talent and skill, leaving an indelible mark on the history of the sport. Inducted into the Hall of Fame in 2010, the team featured the best player of all time, Michael Jordan, a six-time NBA champion and Finals MVP. Jordan was the only player to start in all eight games during the 1992 Olympic Men’s Basketball Tournament for Team USA, showcasing his unparalleled prowess on the court.
The Jersey: A Testament to Excellence
This extraordinary jersey, worn by Michael Jordan, is a rare and coveted piece of basketball memorabilia. On the front left tail, it bears the Champion manufacturer’s tag, size “46,” with washing instructions. Adjacent is another Champion tag that reads, “DESIGNED AND TAILORED EXCLUSIVELY FOR: 1992 SUMMER OLYMPIC GAMES.” The left inseam features a tag that reads, “100% NYLON,” and another that states, “3” EXTRA BODY LENGTH.” The upper left chest is adorned with an embroidered Champion logo, while “USA BASKETBALL” is screen-printed in red and white over the navy blue mesh jersey. The player number “9” is painted in red on white, both on the front and back, with “JORDAN” emblazoned across the back in white.
Signature and Authenticity
Adding to its allure, Michael Jordan signed the jersey on the back player number in black ink, and in our opinion, it rates a mint 10. Below the signature is an Upper Deck Authentics hologram with the serial number “UAS06368.” This jersey is not just a piece of fabric; it is a symbol of Jordan’s legendary status and the sports memorabilia world.
The Shorts: Completing the Ensemble
The accompanying shorts are equally significant, featuring the Champion manufacturer’s tag, size “36,” with washing instructions in the rear waistband. An additional Champion tag reads, “DESIGNED AND TAILORED EXCLUSIVELY FOR 1992 SUMMER OLYMPIC GAMES.” The upper left thigh sports a “Champion” logo patch, and the “USA BASKETBALL” logo is screened in white and blue on both legs. This uniform is properly tagged, was presented to us as game-used, and in our opinion, shows appropriate use.
