 ld Medal Run\n\nCHAMPION\, USA BASKETBALL 1996 SUMMER OLYMPIC GAMES SHORTS
 \, SIZE 40\n\nMESH\n\n1996\n\nSotheby’s presents Scottie Pippen’s game
 -worn shorts from the 1996 Olympic Games in Atlanta. These blue USA Men’
 s National Team shorts were worn during Pippen’s second Olympic gold med
 al run\, marking another milestone in his international career.\n\nCompeti
 ng on home soil\, the 1996 United States Men’s Basketball Team carried s
 ignificant expectations. Often called “Dream Team III\,” the roster re
 flected the next phase of USA Basketball\, bringing together proven champi
 ons and emerging NBA stars. For Pippen\, the Atlanta Games represented a r
 are accomplishment: he became the first player to win an NBA championship 
 and an Olympic gold medal in the same year on two separate occasions\, hav
 ing first done so in 1992 and again following the Chicago Bulls’ title e
 arlier that summer.\n\nThe United States went undefeated in the tournament
 \, winning all eight games to secure the gold medal. The team’s approach
  emphasized defense\, ball movement\, and depth\, resulting in an average 
 margin of victory of more than 30 points per game.\n\nThe roster was ancho
 red by veterans such as Scottie Pippen and Charles Barkley\, both of whom 
 had also competed in the 1992 Olympics. Pippen contributed across multiple
  roles\, from defending top opponents to facilitating offense\, while Bark
 ley provided experience and continuity between generations.\n\nThey were j
 oined by stars Grant Hill\, Penny Hardaway\, David Robinson\, Mitch Richmo
 nd\, Reggie Miller\, Karl Malone\, John Stockton\, Shaquille O’Neal\, Ga
 ry Payton\, and Hakeem Olajuwon. Guided by head coach Lenny Wilkens\, the 
 team played with consistency from start to finish.\n\nGrant Hill later des
 cribed the group’s makeup simply: “We had good balance. We had some yo
 unger players. You had legends like David Robinson\, Karl Malone\, Charles
  Barkley\, John Stockton\, Scottie Pippen. Then guys in their prime like R
 eggie\, Mitch Richmond\, Gary Payton. And then the younger players like my
 self\, Penny\, and Shaq.”\n\nThese shorts come directly from the Collect
 ion of Scottie Pippen.
