“SPALDING” manufactured basketball with three custom white panels. The first white panel features the “BASKETBALL HALL OF FAME” logo and reads “Class of 2014”. The third white panel lists all the inductees for the 2014 class which reads: “Nat “Sweetwater” Clifton - Bob “Slick” Leonard - Sarunas Marciulionis - Alonzo Mourning - Immaculata College 1972-74 - Nolan Richardson - Mitch Richmond - Guy Rodgers - David Stern - Gary Williams”. The ball has been signed in black marker by 7 members of the 2014 class including players Alonzo Mourning with the added inscription “#33”, Sarunas Marciulionis with the added inscription “13” and Mitch Richmond with the added inscription “2”. Additional signatures include coaches Bobby “Slick” Leonard, Nolan Richardson and Gary Williams and long-time NBA Commissioner David Stern with the added inscription “NBA”. In our opinion the signatures rate a near perfect 10 overall. The ball is in NM-MNT condition and holds air. Accompanied by a LOA from JSA and an additional LOA from John Doleva, President & CEO of the Basketball Hall of Fame.
