Four Sixers made the 1983 All-Star team, but it was their longtime Superstar who shined the brightest at this All-Star Game. In front of the Los Angeles crowd at The Forum, Erving put on a dazzling display of dunks and drives en route to 25 points and MVP honors in the East's 132-123 win. Erving was joined on the East squad by Philadelphia teammates Maurice Cheeks, Andrew Toney and the season's eventual MVP, Moses Malone who would all cap their epic season with an NBA Championship.
Erving’s full 1983 All-Star uniform is completely original and unaltered. Both the red mesh jersey and shorts feature matching “Medalist Sand Knit” manufacturer’s tagging. The jersey tag is accompanied by an additional “2” LB” tag on the front tail denoting extra length. All lettering, numbers and star adornments on both items are screened on. Erving has signed the front of both the jersey and the shorts in black sharpie. Appropriate light game wear is evident on both items with no notable condition flaws. This spectacular ensemble from one of Erving’s most memorable All-Star game performances can be easily matched to countless photographs and video from the game.
Includes a signed LOA from Julius Erving.
