A great relic blending two of the greatest to ever hit the hard court, offered here is a Spalding official NBA leather LA Lakers game model basketball used in play during a Lakers home game during the 2010-11 season. This ball exhibits all the appropriate stamping for Lakers team balls, including, "Lakers 2010-11" and the official NBA "Game Ball" stamping on the panel below the Spalding stamping. The ball features excellent signs of usage including assorted scuff markings and wear. Capping off this piece is a bold black felt tip marker autograph, "Kobe 24," penned by the Black Mamba himself directly above the Spalding logo panel. In addition to Kobe, this ball has also been beautifully hand signed by none other than His Royal Airness, Michael Jordan. Impressive! Accompanied by a myriad of provenance, including a COAs for game usage from Lakers game used memorabilia authority DC Sports; a Letter of Authenticity from basketball memorabilia expert Alan Meza; a full Letter of Authenticity from PSA/DNA for the Kobe autograph; and finally a COA for the Jordan autograph from Upper Deck Authenticated (UDA).
