Kyle Irving (@KyleIrv_): This is a difficult decision. My Rajon Rondo jersey when I was with the Boston Celtics and my Kevin Durant jersey with the Oklahoma City Thunder are two that I wore the most, but I have to say my favorite because it was more unique to where I lived: My white Steve Nash Phoenix Suns jersey.
Nash is one of my favorite players of all time. I wore number 13 on every team I played for him. In fact, I still have the rookie chrome on my car to this day. Where I’m from (Boston), no one else had a point guard jersey or even a Phoenix Suns jersey, so that made it more special to me.
Scott Rafferty (@crabdribbles): Toronto Dinosaur Jersey will always have a special place in my heart. It’s pretty cool, but some of my earliest memories are of Tracy McGrady (my favorite player of all time) and Vince Carter.
As you can probably imagine, he was pretty excited when the Raptors picked it up a while back. It’s too bad we didn’t get to see Kawhi Leonard with her.
Kane Pittman (@KanePitman): Ray Allen’s purple Milwaukee Bucks jersey was my first and will always be very special to me. In fact, it’s still somewhere in my house in a box. It gives me a certain nostalgia to see Giannis wearing the same kit as #34. I also had Anthony Davis’ New Orleans Hornets rookie jersey before the Pelicans.
Carlan Gay (@TheCarlanGay): There are two shirts that defined my childhood. One of Doug Flutie wearing Buffalo Bills #7 and a Kobe Bryant wearing #8.
I had other jerseys before Kobe with the 8, but I didn’t love them as much as this one.
Gilbert McGregor (@GMcGregor21): Anyone who knew me as a kid knows that t-shirts were my thing, so it’s pretty hard to pick just one.
With all the kits that come to mind, most were from the Hornets (from Glen Rice and Vlade Divac to Baron Davis and Chris Paul), but the one that stood out to me the most was Kobe at #8. . I feel like for my generation, she had powers. When you put it on you felt different.
