Autographed Michael Jordan jersey (lot #8)
Not-so-modestly nicknamed "His Airness", Michael Jordan is widely respected as not only the best basketball player ever, but also as one of the most important athletes of all time. He redefined the game of basketball and the Chicago Bulls franchise by winning six championships across two three-peats under the legendary coaching of "The Zen", Phil Jackson. After retiring for his second time, Jordan played a brief stint with the Washington Wizards before permanently leaving basketball. This home jersey features his signature across the number 2 on the rear side, and would be a thrill for any basketball enthusiast to receive. Featuring a UDA hologram and certificate of authenticity, bidding for this item will begin at $20.
