ELGIN B<strong>AY</strong>LOR DAVID ROBINSON<br />
1987 LOS ANGELES CLIPPERS DRAFT<br />
LOTTERY JERSEY<br />
A Sand-Knit brand Los Angeles Clippers jersey<br />
created by the Clippers for the 1987<br />
NBA Draft Lottery. David Robinson was the<br />
consensus number one draft pick heading<br />
into the 1987 NBA Draft after completing<br />
his college basketball career at the U.S.<br />
Naval Academy. A lottery was held before<br />
the 1987 draft in order to establish which<br />
team would receive the right to select first<br />
overall and thus earn the right to select<br />
Robinson. The Clippers created this jersey in<br />
the event they secured the number one pick,<br />
but the San Antonio Spurs won the lottery.<br />
The Clippers ended up with the number 4<br />
pick in the 1987 draft. The white mesh jersey<br />
features an arching Clippers logo on the<br />
front with the number “50” below in blue<br />
twill numbering. The back of the jersey features<br />
“Robinson” in blue-on-red arched twill<br />
lettering and a repeating number “50.” The<br />
front left of the jersey features Sand-Knit tagging<br />
in addition to “1”LB” tagging. Size 44.<br />
