Presented here is an autographed replica 1961-62 Philadelphia Warriors Wilt Chamberlain jersey. “The Big Dipper” had one of the most statistically dominant seasons in NBA history, putting up an NBA record 50.4 points and 25.7 rebounds in 48.5 minutes per game. Chamberlain set an NBA record for free throw attempts in 1961-62, heading to the charity stripe for 1,363 shots. This was Chamberlain’s final season in Philadelphia, as the Warriors absconded to San Francisco for the 1962-63 campaign.
This jersey has “PHILA” and Chamberlain’s number “13” sewn on the chest in red and blue tackle twill. A second “13” is sewn on the back in red and blue tackle twill. The sleeve and collar openings are ringed in a yellow and blue band. Chamberlain signed the “1” digit on the front of the jersey in silver marker. This jersey, a limited edition 71 of 100, comes with a COA from Upper Deck (BAF59266).
