On NBA Auctions there's a listing of All Star game prepared jerseys and wanted to know if the term "game prepared" is the same as "game issued"? Is the sizing of these jerseys for each player consistent with the sizes they wore for the game or are these more of a pro-cut style?

Thanks, even though it's a different size? Some of those jerseys look a size or two not what they normally wear.

These Jerseys are clearly being sold as Game Issued Jerseys that had a shot at seeing the game. If you go back to last month and look at the All Star gamers that sold, you could compare the sizes that were worn.

If the sizes varied, maybe these Jerseys were available in case the player wanted a different size. I'm not a huge basketball collector, but I noticed that Kobe wore a 4-6XL just over the last few months?

Very interesting pickup if that is what you find!

Pretty sure Barry will give us a reply if he sees this post. If you see this Barry, how many different categories of jerseys do you use in your systems.
