The second phase of Michael Jordan's career saw the Bulls superstar continue to dominate the NBA. 1997-1998 was Jordan's last season with the Bulls and he made it count: an average of 28.7 points per game, NBA All-Star First Team honors and the last of his five NBA MVP Awards were among his many achievements that season. In addition, Jordan led the Bulls to another NBA Championship, where his 2-point jump shot with 5 seconds left struck a dagger into the heart of the Utah Jazz. It was the second run of three consecutive championships by the Bulls and Michael Jordan's crowning moment.
This timeless red road Chicago Bulls mesh jersey was worn by the greatest basketball player of all-time during that last, triumphant season. The jersey features “BULLS” sewn across the chest in black-on-white tackle twill. Jordan’s iconic number “23” is sewn on the front and back of the jersey in black-on-white tackle twill. “JORDAN” is sewn across the back shoulders in black-on-white tackle twill. A NBA logo patch is sewn on the upper left chest of the jersey. White, black, and red bands ring the sleeve openings and the collar. A Nike size “50” tag, flanked by “NBA Authentics” and “Chicago Bulls” tags, is sewn on the front bottom left portion of the jersey. The Nike tag has a “LENGTH +4” flag attached. This jersey shows light game use and comes with a LOA from Alan Meza.
