Jordan, guarded by Ron Harper

During the 1992–93 season, Jordan led the Bulls to a third consecutive championship while capturing his seventh scoring title, averaging 32.6 points, 6.7 rebounds, 5.5 assists, and a league-best 2.8 steals per game. This press print was shot courtside at Chicago Stadium on April 2, 1993, as Jordan rose over the rim against the New Jersey Nets.

Shot January 6, 1987, this press print catches Jordan wide-eyed and locked in, waiting on the ball as he's guarded by Ron Harper of the Cavaliers — a wide-open mouth, full focus, the kind of intensity that defined his early seasons far more often than the highlight dunks that get reproduced everywhere.

— Original wire caption, typed on the reverse, January 6, 1987

Jordan closed the 1992–93 postseason averaging 35.1 points per game, including a then-record 41.0 points per game in the Finals against Phoenix, earning his third straight Finals MVP. Four months later he would retire for the first time. Photographs from this stretch of the season sit at the very end of the original three-peat era.

PSA/DNA certified this Type I Authentic original photograph. The reverse carries the original typed wire caption in full, credited "Conway 1-6-87" — the photographer's name, game date, and caption exactly as it moved through the wire service in 1987.
