Has this jersey been tampered with?

[mbenga28]

I wanted your thoughts on this jersey. The tagging looks like it has some writing rubbed out and residue from what appears to be a hologram.

Looks like the writing was a date and then "at Toronto"

I'm not sure if its the same jersey. But I believe there was another thread about this jersey and someone mentioned how they loo another players jersey and added his name to it.

Re: Has this jersey been tampered with?

you can see where the steiner hologram was removed from the tagging. the date looks like it was washed. earlier in the year a couple of people took tyson chandler and travis wear jerseys (both #6) and had the name redone to say porzingis. then they pass them off as porzingis issued jerseys.

This is simple. It was a Tyson Chandler jersey worn 3/22/13 at Toronto. Clearly a name swap

Wonder of wonders! Someone is still trying to move this jersey, as it ended up among items I'm authenticating for an auction house. I remembered the original thread, went back to search it, and, yep...it's the exact same one. I'm glad I got to shut this one down, my auction house guy will certainly be glad, and GUU was a big part of this. Thanks for the help.
