For 13 seasons with the Boston Celtics, Bird personified hustle, consistency and excellence in all areas of play; as a scorer, a passer, a rebounder, a defender, a team player, and, perhaps above all, as a clutch performer. Bird was so self-confident that he was known to waltz up to the opponents' bench before tipoff and predict a 40-point performance for himself. Elected to the Basketball Hall of Fame in 1998. Top 50 All-Time player. On the left front tail of this knit jersey is the Medalist Sand-Knit manufacturer's tag with the jersey size "46" on it. Above is an additional manufacturer's exclusive tag that reads "Designed & Tailored Exclusively for the Boston Celtics." Adjacent are two additional manufacturer's embroidered tags with "2” L.B." and “87” on them. In the upper left chest is the official “NBA” logo embroidered. Across the front is "CELTICS." Below is the player number "33". Across the back is "BIRD” and the player number “33”. All lettering and numbering is done in green tackle twill This jersey is properly tagged, was presented to us as game-used and in our opinion shows light use.
