This is the actual ring presented to Julius Erving in honor of his participation in the 1983 NBA 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. This size 12 Balfour celestrum ring is very attractive in its simplicity. Its center design has a beveled rectangular setting, with a blue stone and inlaid basketball flanked top to bottom by "NBA" and "ALL STAR." On one side of the band, the year "1983" is positioned above a rendering of the games venue, L.A.’s Great Western Forum. On the opposite side of the band, the name "ERVING" appears bannered above the official NBA logo, done with attractive red and blue enamel. Erving’s ring, symbolizing one of his most memorable All-Star games, remains in Near Mint condition. Includes a signed LOA from Julius Erving.
