Presented is a ticket stub to a Michael Jordan game in his rookie season. The contest pitted the visiting Milwaukee Bucks versus the Chicago Bulls, played before 13,357 spectators at Chicago Stadium on Jan.4, 1985. Jordan was rolling along towards his being named Rookie of the Year, but the Bulls hadn't yet surrounded Jordan with the talent to carry them to a championship, and Chicago entered the game at 15-15. MJ would wind up the season averaging 28.2 PPG, and this night he was right on that mark as he scored 22 points as the Bulls' top scorer. Sydney Moncrief led the Bulls with 29. The ticket was valued at $11.50 for a ducat at aisle 9, seat 61. Jordan added six assists, three steals, and two rebounds as Chicago won 106-101. Milwaukee did get their revenge as the team knocked Chicago out of the opening round of the Eastern Conference Play-offs, 3 games to 1. As shown in the acclaimed documentary The Last Dance, Michael Jordan eventually led the Bulls to a miraculous Three-Peat of NBA Championships, and he did it two times. The ticket stub has been graded and encapsulated by PSA as AUTHENTIC.  This rookie season ticket is a tangible memento from when the Chicago dynasty was in its formative stages and the NBA's consensus GOAT, Michael Jordan, was a rookie.
