Always An All-Star
Date: 1978
The last of John Havlicek’s 13 consecutive appearances in the NBA All-Star Game came in 1978. Havlicek retired roughly two months after receiving this bag, with his name embroidered on the back, which was made by a fledgling company less than two decades old called Nike. In 22 minutes, Havlicek chipped in 10 points as the East defeated the West, 133-125.
