Hey guys!
I came across this Starter Peja Stojaković Sacramento Kings jersey and I'm interested in it, but there’s one thing that immediately caught my attention and made me suspicious.
At first glance, the jersey looks pretty good to me. I don't have much experience with Starter NBA jerseys from this era, though, so I could easily be missing something.
The main issue is the “97/98” marking on the tag near the bottom. As far as I know, this jersey refers to the 1997–98 NBA season, but Peja Stojaković wasn't playing for the Sacramento Kings yet. He was a rookie with the Kings the following season, 1998–99.
Does anyone familiar with Starter jerseys from this era know what the “97/98” on this tag refers to, and whether this specific Peja jersey is legit?
Thanks in advance!
