Clyde Drexler’s Iconic Game-Worn Jersey: A Tribute to a Basketball Legend

A Legacy of Excellence

Clyde Drexler, a name synonymous with basketball greatness, stands as a two-time inductee into the prestigious Naismith Memorial Basketball Hall of Fame. His illustrious career is celebrated with the retirement of his No. 22 jersey by the Portland Trail Blazers, a testament to his indelible impact on the franchise. Drexler’s prowess on the court is further immortalized as he holds the title of the franchise leader in points and was honored as a member of the NBA’s 50th Anniversary All-Time Team.

The Jersey: A Symbol of Greatness

This remarkable jersey, a piece of basketball memorabilia, is a testament to Drexler’s enduring legacy. The front left tail of the jersey proudly displays the Sand-Knit manufacturer’s tag, size “44”, a mark of authenticity and quality. Adjacent above, the “Willamette Athletic Portland, Oregon” distributor’s tag further attests to its provenance. Across the chest, the iconic “blazers” is emblazoned, with the player number “22” prominently featured below and on the back. The player name “DREXLER” graces the back, all crafted in white on black tackle twill, a striking contrast that echoes Drexler’s dynamic presence on the court.
