1995 NBA Eastern Conference Semifinals Game 6 Ticket
Michael Jordan's First Playoff Series Since His Return To The NBA
A Significant Ticket From Jordan's Comeback Season

Offered here is an original ticket from Game 6 of the 1995 NBA Eastern Conference Semifinals between the Orlando Magic and Chicago Bulls, played on May 18, 1995, at the United Center.

This game marked the conclusion of Michael Jordan's first playoff series following his highly publicized return to professional basketball after nearly two years away from the NBA.

For Jordan collectors, comeback-season tickets remain among the most historically important issues from the entire decade.

"I'm Back"

On March 18, 1995, Michael Jordan stunned the sports world with a simple two-word announcement:

"I'm Back."

After retiring following his third straight NBA championship to pursue professional baseball, Jordan returned to the Chicago Bulls for the final stretch of the 1994-95 season.

Fans immediately wondered whether the greatest player of his generation could regain championship form after such a lengthy absence.

The Bulls vs. The Magic

Chicago's path back to the NBA Finals ran directly through a young and talented Orlando Magic team led by Shaquille O'Neal and Penny Hardaway.

The series became one of the most watched playoff matchups of the 1990s as fans eagerly followed Jordan's return to postseason competition.

Orlando ultimately defeated Chicago in six games, winning this deciding Game 6 by a score of 108-102.

Despite the defeat, the series provided the first glimpse that Jordan and the Bulls were on the verge of becoming contenders once again.

The End Of One Chapter, The Beginning Of Another

While this ticket represents the final game of Jordan's comeback season, history shows that the loss served as motivation for what followed.

During the offseason, the Bulls added Dennis Rodman and retooled their roster around Jordan and Scottie Pippen.

The very next season, Chicago produced one of the greatest campaigns in sports history, winning 72 regular-season games and capturing the 1996 NBA Championship.

That championship would become the first of three consecutive titles during the Bulls' second dynasty.

A Key Jordan Milestone

Tickets connected to Michael Jordan's career milestones continue to be among the most desirable modern-era tickets in the hobby.
