During his 20-plus years of competing in both the ABA and the NBA center and power forward extraordinaire Moses Malone won numerous awards and accolades including three NBA league MVP awards (1979 1982 and 83). For good measure Malone added one NBA team title to his credit as a member of the Philadelphia 76ers in 1983 the same season in which he was also named NBA Finals MVP. Now an NBA Hall of Famer he spent three of his professional seasons playing for the Atlanta Hawks between 1988 and 1991. But it was during a visit to Atlanta during the 1985-86 season as a member of the 76ers when Malone gifted this pair of Nike game-worn shoes to a Hawks ball boy.
The size 15.5 white canvas rather low key shoes with red swooshes show good game use and still include their original laces. Malone signed both of the shoes just above the toe area in black ink and added the following inscription: "76ers #2". During this particular season Malone averaged 23.8 points per game and pulled down 11.8 boards every night. This is a great game-worn pair of signed basketball memorabilia from one of the first professional players ever drafted right out of high school.
Includes Letter of Authenticity from former Atlanta Hawks Ball Boy.
Autographs pre-certified by PSA/DNA.
