Damon Stoudamire Game Worn Portland Blazers Jersey

This white Portland Trail Blazers home jersey was worn by Damon Stoudamire during the 2004–05 NBA season. Manufactured by Reebok, the jersey features the team’s distinctive diagonal red-and-black chest design, with “BLAZERS” displayed across the front and Stoudamire’s player number “3” positioned below. The lettering and numerals are constructed from layered twill and individually machine-stitched to the jersey. The NBA logo is embroidered onto the upper chest, while the Reebok manufacturer logo appears on the opposite side. The body is made from lightweight white performance mesh, with contrasting black and red trim incorporated around the neckline and arm openings. The lower front contains a Reebok Team Apparel manufacturer jock tag identifying the jersey as a size 46. A separate “+4 LENGTH” designation confirms four inches of additional body length. Positioned adjacent to the main manufacturer label is an embroidered “2004–2005” season tag, consistent with team-issued Portland Trail Blazers jerseys prepared for that NBA season. The jersey exhibits characteristics consistent with professional team customization and game use. The construction, tagging configuration, materials, lettering style and overall design correspond with Portland’s white home uniform specifications from the 2004–05 season.

The 2004–05 season represented the final chapter of Damon Stoudamire’s eight-year tenure with the Portland Trail Blazers. By this point, Stoudamire was one of the longest-serving players on the roster and an established figure in the franchise’s transition away from the highly competitive teams of the late 1990s and early 2000s. Portland experienced a difficult season and finished with a 27–55 record. The campaign also marked a period of significant organizational change, including a midseason coaching transition from Maurice Cheeks to interim head coach Kevin Pritchard. Despite the team’s struggles, Stoudamire remained an important veteran presence and one of Portland’s primary offensive contributors. He appeared in 81 games and averaged 15.8 points and 5.7 assists per game during his final season with the team. The defining individual performance of Stoudamire’s season came on January 14, 2005, when he scored a career-high 54 points against the New Orleans Hornets. At the time, the performance established a new Trail Blazers single-game scoring record and remains one of the most notable games of his NBA career. Born in Portland, Oregon, Damon Stoudamire developed into one of the most prominent basketball players produced by the city. After an outstanding collegiate career at the University of Arizona, he was selected seventh overall by the Toronto Raptors in the 1995 NBA Draft. Stoudamire made an immediate impact, earning NBA Rookie of the Year honors in 1996 and becoming the first major franchise player in Raptors history. In February 1998, Stoudamire returned to his hometown when he was traded to the Portland Trail Blazers. Nicknamed “Mighty Mouse,” the undersized but highly skilled point guard became known for his scoring ability, ball handling, court vision and competitive style of play. He helped Portland reach the Western Conference Finals in both 1999 and 2000 and remained with the franchise through the conclusion of the 2004–05 season. This white Reebok home jersey originates from Stoudamire’s final year in Portland. Its period-correct 2004–2005 season tagging, size 46 designation and additional four inches of body length identify it as a professionally prepared team jersey from that campaign. As a game-worn jersey from the closing season of his Trail Blazers career, it represents both Stoudamire’s connection to his hometown franchise and the conclusion of an important era in Portland basketball history.
