 What is your favorite/most unique basketball jersey you either own now, or owned as a kid/in the past?

For me the coolest one I own now is either a Ricky Rubio Espana jersey that says "Ricky" on the back, or a throwback Glen Rice Heat jersey. 

The coolest one I had as a kid was either a Shawn Kemp Cavs jersey that had the black with the diagonal light blue zig zag with the orange numbers, or a Hakeem Olajuwon team USA jersey.

Full disclosure: I’ve always been a football-first kinda guy, so I don’t have many basketball jerseys, but my favorite jersey I own is a vintage Ray Allen Bucks jersey with the old color scheme.

A very close second would be my Delly – Bucks jersey. I know he’s not on the Bucks anymore and didn’t really live up to that contract (he played well in the playoffs, though), but I’ve always loved the way he’s played and how he’s truly maximized his God-given abilities.

 I have a OG Pat Ewing jersey and a throwback Pistol Pete Jazz jersey. I also own a Starks and a Kobe #8

The only jersey I ever bought was a Garnett blue Timberwolves one.

 Demar Derozan Raptors Alternate

I used to have a LBJ green and gold St Vincent/St Mary’s Irish jersey. It was too big for me and I never wore it so I just threw it up on my wall. Not sure where it has gone, I think when I was moving it got thrown in storage and then eventually thrown out. So sad.

[The GoatParticipant]

 I haven’t owned one for over 20 years, so it’s very interesting to think the last one was a black Miami Heat #3 … That’s right, Steve Smith! 

[Scrooge McDuckParticipant]

THe six eight great from michigan state. He wore number 8 

[WotanParticipant]

 Steve Smith = stud

[Evan_MilbergParticipant]

The gold Gilbert Arenas jersey, circa ‘05-06

[WetalkinboutpracticeParticipant]

I wanted that jersey desperately! Part of me still does lol. 

[dcaseParticipant]

 Favorite jersey I own is a white Syarcuse #21 (Lawrence Moten) from the early-mid 1990s.

[CoachWyersParticipant]

 Well since Magic Johnson is my favorite All Time player the gold Magic jersey I had as a kid was my favorite.  I have had a lot of cool ones though like Anthony Mason Charlotte Hornets, etc.  As a teenager I had a vast collection of jerseys.

[BlueRivers25Participant]

 Jay Williams #22 Duke black jersey 

[WetalkinboutpracticeParticipant]

Well considering recent events my Kawhi Leonard #15 San Diego State has made quite the leap within my personal collection.

But my favorite remains that Orlando Magic blue pinstripe Penny Hardaway #1

[SubZeroParticipant]

Man where’d you get that Penny jersey? That’s the jersey I want the most, he’s my favorite player

[WetalkinboutpracticeParticipant]

A friend of the family gifted it to me when I was like 14. Dude was 6’2 and it didn’t fit me until I got to college. But once I could pull it off with out drowning in it, instantl became my favorite. (Hardwood classics edition too)

[SubZeroParticipant]

Gave it to a friend who’s actually a Bulls fan a couple years ago but I had a pinstripe Rodman Bulls jersey that I always loved for some reason

[Thunder DanParticipant]

I get the most compliments on my Rik Smits Pacers jersey but likely bc I live in Indiana but my Anthony Mason Knicks jersey may be my favorite. I’ve been searching for a Cavaliers Bob Sura jersey in 48 for years  

[CynthiaParticipant]

My most unique/coolest jersey was a reversable one. One side was Shawn Kemp (Cleveland Cavs) and other side was Chris Webber (Washington Wizards).

[OhCanada-Participant]

 Thats amazing. How did you get that.

[CynthiaParticipant]

I just seen it at the mall one day when I was like 12, I had never seen a reversible jersey before and it was two players I really liked so I had to have it.

I don’t think that reversible series lasted very long so it’s probably pretty rare now days. I wonder if there are other ones like it and who the players were, this was the only one I ever saw.

[WetalkinboutpracticeParticipant]

I have a reversible Kobe rookie edition/Garnett blue Timberwolves jersey. Found it in a thrift shop in NY. Would post but the forum on mobile is tough to navigate.

[projectpat310Participant]

Rookie year Gary Payton Sonics jersey with the #2. As we all know, GP wore #20 for the rest of his career.  

[HeroescantdieParticipant]

I don’t have any, but if I have to choose, probably Larry Johnson hornets days (Blue green one), Barkley phoenix (black color alternate) and or Brandon Roy Any color, (he s my all time favorite player but idk why lol)

[WetalkinboutpracticeParticipant]

A Broy Jersey in any edition is a certified classic! Need to pick up one of those! 

[ThenilonatorParticipant]

 Not sure it goes down as a favourite but it is the only jersey I ever bought. When visiting Toronto many years ago I was walking past a sports store and Jerome Williams (The junkyard dog!) was doing a signing so I bought one and got it signed, i thought it was awesome. I still have it on my wall, people ask who is that…..umm never mind haha

[ChoppyParticipant]

 Grant Hill Pistons jersey. Teal. Magnificent. 

[redsoxfreak724Participant]

Probably the coolest one I have is a Michigan Jimmy King from the Fab 5 – found it in a thrift store too in North Carolina of all places

[cheetosjalapeno17Participant]

It’s a short rotation, but I currently alternate between a Lakers Nick Young jersey and a Clippers Lamar Odom Jersey. Been recently a fan of obscure basketball jerseys since all we have in the Philippines are the Jerseys of the top stars. 

[Andrew1984Participant]

 I’ve never really been a gear guy, but I somehow ended up with a ’94 Dennis Rodman Spurs jersey, which I still wear occasionally when walking my 170-pound English Mastiff. 

Will be rooting for Rodman’s son, who will be a WSU Coug!

[OhCanada-Participant]

 If I ever see a guy in a ’94 Spurs Rodman jersey walking a 170 pound English mastiff walking towards me Im immediatly walking the other way or crossing the street. 

[Andrew1984Participant]

 Fair. 

[daggers818Participant]

 Got Caron Butler Lakers #1 home white

[XYRYXParticipant]

I have a few. Kobe #8, KD Thunder and my most valuable one money wise for sure is a signed Dream Team Jordan Jersey. Not only did Jordan sign it, it was also signed by Larry Bird, Magic and a few years later by the great Wilt. Got a COA for it and it might be the only jersey of that kind. Got it like 15 years ago and still think it’s kickin ass. 

Also got a black pinstripe Orlando Shaq jersey as well as a Kobe 24 All Star Jersey and a white Magic Johnson Michigan State jersey from my best friends mom when my friend passed away in 2015. They mean a lot to me even if they are burried in my closet.
