Power forward Shawn Kemp wore this classic home gamer for Seattle in
1993-94 when he was at the peak of his athletic prowess, rattling the
rim and dazzling the crowd with incredible dunks. "Reign
Man," as he was appropriately nicknamed, averaged 18.1 points, 10.8
rebounds and 2.1 blocks on the year, one in which the SuperSonics
finished the regular season with the league's best record at 63-19
before falling to Denver in the playoffs. Any Sonics jersey from the early-mid 1990's is now considered a
collector's item, especially one hailing from perhaps the team's most popular player ever.
The white mesh shirt has "SONICS" across the front
in screened white atop the Seattle green elastic panel adorned with
yellow trim. "KEMP" appears on the back in the same configuration. His
No. "40" is screened below in green and gold and on the back in the same
manner. Champion size 48 tagging is found on left front tail
with "Designed 1993-94 and Tailored Exclusively For SEATTLE
SUPERSONICS” and a "Body Length +4" labeled. The NBA embroidered logo
appears on the front left shoulder flanked by the gold and green knit
elastic on the collar and yokes. The polyester mesh and nylon shirt is
all-original and shows light to moderate wear overall. Kemp has added his signature and "#40 Reign Man" inscriptions over the Sonics logo on the front in 6-7/10 black pen.
