Dikembe Mutombo was inducted into the Naismith Memorial Basketball Hall of Fame in 2015. An eight-time All-Star, Mutombo was named the Defensive Player of the Year four times, led the NBA in blocks three times and rebounds twice. On the front left tail is a “reebok” manufacturer’s tag with two flag tags attached that read, “+4 LENGTH” and “2001-2002” respectively. On the left inseam is a size “52” tag, a “MADE IN USA” tag and a materials tag. On the left chest is the official “NBA” logo embroidered and on the right chest is a 9/11 memorial ribbon and American flag patch embroidered. On the v-neck is a star embroidered. Across the chest reads, “SIXERS” in white on red on black tripe tackle twill with metallic silver and blue tackle twill used for the banner below. Brown and black stitching was used for the basketball logo. The player numbering “55” appears on both the front and on the back and across the back reads the player name, “MUTOMBO”. These are done in white on red tackle twill sewn directly onto the black jersey. Mutombo signed the back left player number “5” in black pen. This jersey is properly tagged and was presented to us as game-used and in our opinion shows appropriate use. Accompanied by an LOA from JSA, Grey Flannel and Infinite Auctions.
