The Mailman, arguably the greatest power forward to play the game, was a two-time NBA MVP who earned 14 All-Star appearances and was named one of the 50 greatest players in league history in 1996. This purple 2001-02 Karl Malone Utah Jazz game used road jersey exhibits an elaborate mountain scene design with “JAZZ” across the chest in blue-and-purple stitching on white tackle twill. His name "MALONE" is across the back in white letters, with his number “32” appearing on both sides in white on orange-and-green tackle twill. The upper right chest of the jersey features red, white and blue ribbon patch with an American flag, worn that season to honor the victims of 9/11, opposite the NBA logo patch. The front tail of the jersey features a white “Champion” manufacturer’s tag with size “52” and an affixed tag indicating “+4 LENGTH.” To the left is another stitched “Champion” tag with the Utah Jazz logo and an affixed tag that reads “2001-2002.” The jersey exhibits evidence of light game use and appears to be all original and unaltered. The jersey comes with an LOA from Dave Miedema, noted sports jersey expert.
