One half of the celebrated duo that helped propel the Chicago Bulls to a remarkable six NBA titles in the 1990s, and their record 1995–96 season of 72 wins, Scottie Pippen (the other guy was Michael Jordan) played a key role in that Bulls dynasty that ultimately helped popularize the NBA around the world during the decade. Considered one of the best small forwards of all time, Pippen was named to the NBA All-Defensive First Team eight consecutive times and the All-NBA First Team three times. He was a seven-time NBA All-Star and was the NBA All-Star Game MVP in 1994. The Hall of Famer was named one of the 50 Greatest Players in NBA History during the 1996–97 season.
This blazing white home shirt has "Bulls" and "33" in red with black trim tackle twill on the front with "Pippen" and "33" in the same configuration on the back. The iconic NBA patch appears on the upper left front. "Champion Size 46" and "Designed & Tailored Exclusively for Chicago Bulls Body Length +3" tags are on the front tail. The armpits and collar of the jersey have the distinctive red, black and white knit trim. The shirt, representing a revered member of one of the league's preeminent dynasties, is a historic artifact of considerable import; the shirt reveals game use and is largely problem free, with only the barest whispers of any fraying of the black stitching around letters or numbers. Pippen has added a handsome black Sharpie autograph below his uniform number on the front.
Comes with Letter of Authenticity from the Chicago Bulls and a Letter of Provenance from the Newport Sports Museum Collection.
