Presented is a heavily game-worn white home jersey from Hall of Fame center Dikembe Mutombo, worn during the 2000-01 NBA season with the Atlanta Hawks. This Champion jersey is tagged size 52 with +4” length, consistent with team-issued specifications for Mutombo during that period.
The jersey displays tremendous evidence of game use, including numerous loose threads, light staining throughout, and a worn-in overall appearance that reflects the physical style of play Mutombo was known for. Notably, the jersey features a black memorial armband on the left shoulder, adding further historical context to this authentic game artifact.
The 2000-01 season marked Mutombo’s final year in Atlanta before being traded to the 76ers, where he helped lead Philadelphia to the NBA Finals. As one of the most dominant defensive players in league history and a four-time Defensive Player of the Year, Mutombo’s game-worn pieces are both rare and significant.
A powerful representation of one of the NBA’s most iconic big men, this jersey is a cornerstone item for any serious basketball memorabilia collection.
