By combining a balanced scoring attack with dominant rebounding from their big men, the Washington Wizards franchise would win its only NBA championship. The season was 1977-1978, and the team was then known as the Washington Bullets. A trio of Hall of Fame legends led the Bullets through a string of postseason battles that ended with a victory in the NBA Finals over the Seattle Supersonics. Joining Hall of Famers Elvin Hayes, Wes Unseld, and Bob Dandridge in the signing of the offered 1977-1978 World Champion Bullets team-signed ball are (7) other members of the squad including Mitch Kupchak, Tom Henderson, Kevin Grevey, Greg Ballard, Phil Walker, Joe Pace, and Phil Chenier. Ranging ("6" to "8") in strength, these autographs appear on a vintage Wilson Official NBA/O'Brien basketball that shows moderate wear, but remains appealing with a solid shape. Also written on the ball is the moniker "1977-78 World Champions Wash. Bullets."
