A Testament to Basketball Greatness

Scottie Pippen, a name synonymous with excellence in basketball, boasts an illustrious career marked by six NBA Championships and two Olympic Gold Medals. Voted as one of the top 50 NBA players in 1996 and inducted into the Hall of Fame in 2010, Pippen’s legacy is immortalized in the annals of basketball history. His contributions to the Chicago Bulls during their dominant era are celebrated through this remarkable piece of basketball memorabilia.

Detailed Craftsmanship and Design

The jersey, a size “48” from the esteemed “Champion” brand, is a testament to the craftsmanship and attention to detail that defined the 1996-1997 Chicago Bulls season. The front left tail proudly displays the manufacturer’s tag, while an adjacent tag reads “DESIGNED & TAILORED EXCLUSIVELY FOR CHICAGO BULLS 96/97” with “BODY LENGTH +3”. The left chest features the official “NBA” logo embroidered in gold, commemorating the NBA’s 50th Season. Across the front, the iconic “BULLS” is emblazoned, with the player number “33” both below and on the back, and “PIPPEN” across the back, all in red on black on white tackle twill.

Signature and Authenticity

Pippen’s signature graces the “3” on the front of the jersey in black marker, with the signature rating an impressive 8 in our opinion. The shorts, also from “Champion” and size “42”, bear the player number “33” written in black marker on the inner rear waistband. The shorts are tailored with “RISE +2 – INSEAM +3” and feature the “NBA” logo in gold on the front right leg, alongside the Chicago “Bull” logo on each leg. Pippen’s signature on the front of the right leg in silver marker is equally noteworthy, rated a strong 8.
