1991-1992 Shawn Kemp Seattle Sonics Game-Used Road Jersey

The Seattle SuperSonics drafted Kemp in the first round of the 1989 NBA Draft and he quickly became a force to be reckoned with. Kemp was one of the NBA's premier high flyers with outstanding leaping abilities. At the time, he was the youngest player in the NBA. On the front left tail is the "Champion" manufacturer’s size 48 tag with wash instructions. Adjacent is another Champion "YEAR 1991 BODY LENGTH +4" tag. Across the front is "SONICS" in green screen print. Below that and on the back of the jersey is the player number "40" in yellow on white screen print. Across the back is the player name "KEMP" in green screen print. On the upper left breast is the embroidered official “NBA” logo. The jersey shows game-use and appears to have no alterations of any kind. Accompanied by an additional LOA.
