Kobe Bryant made his way onto 11 All-NBA First Teams and nine NBA All-Defensive First Teams to ensure his place in NBA history as one of the best two-way guards. A five-time NBA champion, Bryant had both the scoring prowess and defensive tenacity that allows himself to be compared to some of the game’s all-time greats. Bryant wore this road jersey during multiple road games, including a 31-point performance against the Atlanta Hawks on March 13th, 2013. On the front left tail is an “adidas” manufacturer’s tag that has “climacool” and “SIZE 4XL” on it. Attached is a flag tag that reads, “LENGTH +4””. Adjacent is the official NBA swatch with serial number, “LLA01059”. On the left inseam is a size “4XL4” materials tag with washing instructions and a tag that reads, “06/12 P55189 AZB001”. On the inside hanging off the rear collar is a size “4XL4” tag. On the left chest is the official “NBA” logo embroidered and on the right chest is “JB” memorial patch embroidered for late owner Jerry Buss. Across the chest reads, “LAKERS” in gold-colored tackle twill with a white-stitched border. The player number “24” appears on both the front and on the back in white mesh with a gold-stitched border on purple tackle twill. Across the back reads the player name, “BRYANT” in gold-colored on white tackle twill. This jersey is properly tagged, was presented to us as game-used and in our opinion shows appropriate use.
