Magic Johnson is acknowledged as one of the most popular NBA basketball players of all time, being well-known for his uncanny passing and dribbling skills, and for his cheerful nature on and off the court. Having won everything possible at the college level, Johnson decided to leave college two years early and declared himself eligible for the 1979 NBA Draft. The Los Angeles Lakers drafted Johnson with the first overall pick, where he established a successful career as he won five NBA championships, played in nine NBA Finals series, and was elected three times for both NBA MVP and NBA Finals MVP. On the front left tail is the "Champion" manufacturer's tag with wash instructions and jersey size "44" on it. The inside seam has two tags, a "100% NYLON" tag and a "3" EXTRA LENGTH" tag. Across the front of the jersey is "LAKERS." Below that and on the back of the jersey is the player number "32." Across the back is the player name "JOHNSON." All lettering and numbering is done in purple on white tackle twill. On the upper front left is the embroidered official NBA logo. Autographed on front in black marker and rates a 9. The jersey shows good game-use and appears to have no alterations of any kind. Accompanied by a LOA from JSA.
