Michael Jordan Signed Basketball | Likely Used

This Spalding NBA “Official Game Ball” is signed by basketball legend Michael Jordan in black ink across the front pane. The ball also features an inscription that reads "To Betty Best Wishes". Given the markings on the ball, Sotheby's believes it to be game used.

Often considered the greatest player in basketball history, Michael Jordan won six NBA championships with the Chicago Bulls in the 1990s in addition to two Olympic Gold Medals and countless other accolades. A five-time NBA MVP and six-time Finals MVP, Jordan’s starpower went further than basketball. 

Though his professional basketball career ended in 2003, Jordan’s name has become synonymous with greatness. The Jordan Brand – the result of Jordan’s legendary partnership with Nike – prospers to the present day as Jordan maintains a massive fanbase and remains a symbol of success all over the world. 

The basketball is accompanied by a letter from James Spence Authentication in regards to the signature.
