Michael Jordan’s Washington Wizards Jersey: A Piece of Basketball History

The Legend’s Final Chapter

Michael Jordan, often hailed as the greatest basketball player of all time, concluded his illustrious NBA career with the Washington Wizards. During his tenure with the Wizards, Jordan continued to demonstrate his unparalleled skills, earning All-Star honors in both seasons. Averaging an impressive 21.2 points per game, he started 120 out of a possible 164 games, leaving an indelible mark on the franchise.

Jordan’s legacy is further cemented by his dual induction into the Naismith Memorial Basketball Hall of Fame. He was honored in 2009 for his individual career and again in 2010 as a member of the legendary 1992 Men’s Olympic Basketball “Dream Team.”

A Jersey with Unique Features

The jersey in question is a Nike size “50” with a flag tag indicating “LENGTH + 4.” On the left inseam, it features a materials tag with washing instructions and a Nike “2002-03” year tag. Notably, the extra length flag tag on the left front tail is devoid of the “Made In U.S.A.” marking, a rare variation that adds to its uniqueness. The “Made In U.S.A.” tag is instead located on the inner left side seam, accompanied by the appropriate Nike year flag tagging.

• Official NBA Logo: Embroidered on the left chest, signifying its authenticity.
• Team and Player Details: “WIZARDS” and the iconic number “23” are emblazoned in white on copper on black triple tackle twill across the jersey.
• Player Name: “JORDAN” is prominently displayed in white on copper tackle twill on the back.
• Game Use Evidence: Deodorant transfer residue under the arms, further attesting to its use in play.

This jersey is properly tagged, was presented to us as game-used and in our opinion shows excellent use. Such details not only enhance its authenticity but also its desirability among collectors and fans alike.
