Michael Jordan was on a roll during the 1991-92 NBA season. He won his second straight MVP award, appeared in his eighth consecutive All-Star game, and made ALL NBA First Team for the sixth straight year. One of MJ's most memorable performances that season came in game 1 of the NBA finals against the Portland Trail Blazers.
Jordan was a career 32.7 percent from beyond the arc at this juncture in his career. In classic Michael Jordan fashion, he wrecked Portland's game plan and drained a record setting six three balls during the first half. After splashing his sixth three of the half, he looked at the scorer's table and shook his head three times. Then, while jogging back to the defensive end of the floor, he employed a simple shrug of his shoulders.
This game has lived in infamy and is appropriately referred to as "THE SHRUG." Offered here is an authentic white 1992 Mitchell & Ness Chicago Bulls jersey. The jersey has been embroidered "The Shrug vs. Portland, 6/30/1992" using MJ's handwritten inscription. Jordan's autograph runs along the inside of the number 2 in black marker.
Comes with Upper Deck Authentication. Autograph is Pre-certified by PSA/DNA.
