Scottie Pippen’s 1996 Olympic Jersey: A Testament to Basketball Excellence
A Legendary Team and a Historic Victory
The 1996 Dream Team II, following in the footsteps of its illustrious predecessor, showcased a dazzling array of talent and dominance on the basketball court. With an average victory margin of 31.8 points per game, the team secured another gold medal in the vibrant host city of Atlanta. Among the stars of this iconic team was Scottie Pippen, whose contributions were pivotal to the team’s success. Now, we present a rare opportunity to own a piece of this historic moment: Scottie Pippen’s game-worn blue jersey from the 1996 Olympics.
Details of the Jersey
This remarkable jersey is a testament to the craftsmanship and attention to detail that defined the era. The front left tail features the Champion manufacturer’s tag, indicating a size “48” with washing instructions. Adjacent to this is a special tag that reads, “DESIGNED & TAILORED EXCLUSIVELY FOR: 1996 SUMMER OLYMPIC GAMES.” The left inseam boasts two flag tags, one detailing the body fabrics and the other stating “4” EXTRA BODY LENGTH.” The upper right chest is adorned with the “Champion” logo, while the “USA BASKETBALL” logo is screen-printed in striking red and white.
- Front Design: The chest proudly displays “USA” in white and red screen print.
- Player Number: The number “8” is prominently featured in white on red tackle twill, both on the front and back.
- Player Name: “PIPPEN” is screen-printed across the back in white.
A Signature of Greatness
Adding to the jersey’s allure is Scottie Pippen’s autograph, elegantly signed on the front. Although the signature is subtle due to the contrast with the dark jersey, it remains a cherished mark of authenticity. Presented to us as game-used, this jersey is properly tagged and, in our opinion, exhibits excellent use. The jersey is accompanied by a Full Letter of Authenticity (LOA) from JSA, a Scottie Pippen LOA, and a LOA from Photo-Match.com confirming the match.
