Just looking to open up a discussion on what is considered game worn vs. game issued as far as NBA jerseys go. I'm sure NBA and MLB are apples to oranges in this discussion from what I hear about Managers jerseys being considered game worn.

My question is this.. for example: Greg Oden's rookie vs. soph jersey listed on Meigray (Meigray has nothing to do with this it's just an example).

The Oden jersey was listed as "Game Worn" at tip off time when the jerseys came up. Right up until tip off Oden was going to play until they held him out because of his knee. He was dressed to play but didn't log any minutes.

A couple of days or so after the game they relisted it as 'Game Issued'.
Is the way it's determined a players jersey is game worn vs. game issued based on minutes logged?

Just trying to make sense of it for myself. All opinions welcomed..
