1996 NBA All-Star Game Jersey not only celebrates the 1996 NBA All-Star Game in San Antonio's Alamodome, it also honors one of the most overlooked forwards, Shawn Kemp. With his jersey number 40, Kemp ended up on the squad for six years consecutively, but it was during the 1995-96 season when Kemp and Gary Payton led the (now ) to their first NBA Finals appearance. The duo also challenged Michael Jordan and his Chicago Bulls' supremacy on the court, extending the Finals into a six-game series before losing.
