     Former Chicago Bull and current Oklahoma City Thunder power forward Taj Gibson wore this yellow jersey during his freshman season at the University of Southern California. Gibson entered USC as a consensus top 50 recruit in the same high school class as Greg Oden, Kevin Durant, and Mike Conley. Among all players from this high school class, Gibson ranks seventh in win shares, with 41.7. During his freshman season at USC, Gibson averaged 12.2 points and 8.7 rebounds per game, leading USC to a record of 25-12 and a #5 seed in the NCAA Tournament. Although they lost in the second round to UNC, Gibson and the Trojans proved USC was more than a football school. Gibson played two more seasons at USC before being selected with the 26th pick in the first round of the 2009 NBA Draft by the Chicago Bulls.

     This yellow jersey is USC’s alternate uniform from Gibson’s freshman season in 2006-07. “Southern California” is sewn on the front in red tackle twill, with Gibson’s number “22” appearing between the two words in red tackle twill. “22” is also sewn on the back of the jersey in red tackle twill. An interlocking “SC” logo is sewn on the collar of the jersey, while an American flag patch is sewn on the left chest area. A memorial patch for Ryan Francis, a former starting point guard for the USC Trojans who was tragically murdered after the 2006 season, is sewn on the right chest area. A size “54” tag is sewn on the front left tail of the jersey. A “Length +4” flag is attached to this tag.

     Additionally, Gibson’s yellow Nike shorts from the season are included. “Trojans” and “SC” are sewn on the bottom of the right leg, while a red Nike swoosh is embroidered at the top of the left. The sides feature red and white accents. Nike size “46” and “Length +2” flags are sewn on the waistband of the shorts. These items show light evidence of game use, and come with a LOA from noted game used jersey expert Dave Miedema.
