Description 1992 Olympic Games Michael Jordan Game Worn & Signed USA Basketball Dream Team Sneakers - Fischer Collection. Fittingly, the greatest NBA player ever was also the centerpiece on the greatest sports team ever assembled - The Dream Team. Jordan had already won as a collegian in 1984 but was hungry to recapture the gold after America's embarrassing third place showing in the 1988 games in Seoul.



On the court, Michael Jordan was just as competitive during the Olympics as he was in the NBA, playing extra hard versus Toni Kukoc and visibly annoyed at Magic during a Dream Team magazine cover shoot when the Laker guard warned teammates "You can't stand too close to Michael or it's a foul." Perhaps Jordan's greatest challenge though came when his White Team battled Magic's Blue Team in Monte Carlo in what his Airness considered the greatest game in which he's ever played.



On offer here are Michael Jordan's game worn Dream Team sneakers, loaded with memories from the greatest basketball player ever playing on the most dominating sports team in history. White Air Jordan's with blue and red trim are a size "13" with his number "9" on the backs. Jumpman logo embroidered on the ankles in gold and on the bottoms in white. Each signed in black sharpie on the outer ankles. The USA took home the gold in basketball this year. Game wear evident. Letter of provenance from David A. Fischer, MD. LOA from Heritage Auctions. Full LOA from PSA/DNA. Auction LOA from James Spence Authentication.



The David A. Fischer, MD Dream Team I Collection



Game worn sneakers, Championship ring, team signed basketballs provide inside look at greatest sports team ever assembled



By the time the USA Basketball Olympic committee came calling, David A. Fischer, MD had already enjoyed a long and distinguished career at the highest levels of American sports, having served as team physician to the Minnesota Vikings of the NFL and Timberwolves of the NBA for over a quarter century. But between the start of the qualifying "Tournament of the Americas" in mid-June 1992 through the final game of the Barcelona Olympics in mid-August, Fischer found himself linked to a team unequalled in the annals of athletic history.



Now, nearly twenty-four years after legends from Michael Jordan to Magic Johnson to Larry Bird took the top step of the podium to receive their Gold Medals, Dr. Fischer releases the treasures of his service to the bidding audience of our May Catalog Auction



"We have enjoyed the items and memories," said Fischer. "We will always have the memories and friendships. However, we now think it time to allow other basketball fans and collectors the opportunity to share in these as well."



Most notable among the contents of the Fischer Collection is a nearly full roster of game worn sneakers, many autographed with grateful messages from the legendary figures the doctor treated. Autograph collectors will be drawn to a pair of team signed basketballs, each so scarce that only team members and staff had access. A variety of Championship awards are likewise on offer, including a Gold Medal for the "Tournament of the Americas" and a ring representing the Gold Medal achievement at Barcelona.
