The Los Angeles Lakers drafted Johnson with the first overall pick, where he established a great 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. He was elected into the HOF in 2002. On the front left tail is the Champion manufacturer’s tag size “44” with washing instructions. On the left inseam is a flag tag reading “100% NYLON”. On the upper left chest is the official “NBA” logo embroidered. Across the front reads "LAKERS". Below that and on the back is the player number "32". Across the back is the player name "JOHNSON". All numbering and lettering is done in purple on white tackle twill sewn directly into the mesh jersey. Johnson signed on the front of the jersey inside the number “3” in black marker and in our opinion the signature rates an 8. Above the signature inside the number is a Beckett sticker serial number “B51834”. This jersey is properly tagged, was presented to us as game-used and in our opinion shows appropriate use. Accompanied by a LOA from JSA, a DC Sports LOA and a Beckett COA.
