Presented here is a fantastic gamer from Hall of Famer Jamaal Wilkes who played on four World Championship teams with the Warriors and Lakers two NCAA Championships alongside Bill Walton at UCLA in the closing years of the John Wooden era. "Silk" parlayed his silky-smooth style at small forward into NBA career averages of 17.7 points and 6.2 assists.
Boasting the perfect A10 rating from MEARS this 1977-78 Lakers (pre-Showtime era) gold-mesh jersey was worn by Wilkes in his very first season in L.A. The appropriate "Tiernan of Glendale Calif." tagging (slightly faded) appears on the left front tail and "LAKERS" across the front of the shirt in purple and white tackle twill. Wilkes' No. 52 appears front and back in white-on-purple tackle twill with his name across the back in purple-on-white tackle twill sewn directly to the shirt. [In 1978-79 the Lakers switched to purple-on-white tackle twill jersey numbers. The shirt has purple and white elastic trim on the collar and yokes. As suggested by the A10 MEARS rating the shirt shows outstanding game use with puckering of the tackle twill elements most prominently on his No. 52 front and back and slight fraying of the front and back numbers.
Letter from MEARS with perfect A10 grade.
