Overview
- Topps announced James will debut the special patch tonight against the Kings in Sacramento, where he began his NBA career in 2003.
- ESPN reports he is expected to keep the patch on his jersey for the remainder of the regular season.
- After each game, the patch will be removed, dated and authenticated, with select pieces inserted into ultra-rare Topps cards.
- The patch sits on the upper-right chest and features a chalk-toss silhouette, three team-color stripes for Cleveland, Miami and the Lakers, and the number 23.
- The program commemorates James’ NBA-record 23rd season at age 41, following his seasons-played mark set in November.
