As the third-leading scorer in NBA history, and with 18 All-Star selections and five NBA Titles, Kobe Bryant’s ticket to the Basketball Hall of Fame is a foregone conclusion. The future HOFer wore this Adidas size 54 road jersey during the 2008-09 NBA season, which culminated in Bryant’s fourth NBA Championship and his first of what would be back-to-back NBA Finals MVP Awards. This Lakers road jersey is purple mesh with white and gold side panels and features “LAKERS” across the front and “BRYANT” on the back in matching gold-on-white tackle twill. Bryant’s number “24” is found on both the front and back in white mesh with gold tackle twill. The NBA logo patch adorns the left front shoulder. The Adidas manufacturer’s tag with NBA Authentics and Lakers logo is found on the front left tail, with size “54”, “CLIMALITE”, “LENGTH +4” and “2008-2009” flap tags affixed. For authenticity purposes, the jersey is accompanied by an LOA from D.C. Sports Collectibles.
