Dream Team auction, which is running online from May 11 to June 28. The historic garment mirrors the American flag, with a red, white, and blue color scheme and the classic stars and stripes. The country’s acronym also runs diagonally across the center. The GOAT’s signature on the left chest area is what makes this a coveted collectible, though.Interestingly, Jordan was vehemently against wearing the jacket as he had a deep loyalty to Nike.
“The Dream Team’s influence on basketball is immeasurable,” Sotheby’s head of streetwear and modern collectibles Brahm Wachter said in a statement. “To be able to sell this relic from such a historic world event—one that is often credited for multiplying the popularity and global reach of basketball—is both rare and unparalleled.”
The decidedly patriotic piece is expected to fetch between $1 million and $3 million in the online sale. Bidding will kick off at 12 p.m. on May 11 and wrap up at 7 p.m. on June 28. The jacket will also be on display IRL at Sotheby’s New York from June 24 to 28.

What the authors call Inclusive Teaming is not about having a diverse team. In fact, there is evidence that diverse teams can underperform homogeneous teams if inclusion is not a habit. Therefore, Inclusive Teaming is not defined by a team with differences, but by a team that actively and productively manages those differences — a team that is in the behavioral habit of inclusion. The authors have identified a set of patterns of behavior that impede Inclusive Teaming: Detractor Patterns. While teams may be keen to identify Detractor Patterns, this is not enough.
