Derek Anderson, the shooting guard from Kentucky with the impeccably trimmed goatee, was once a recipient of Air Jordan Player Exclusives during Jordan Brand’s days of branching out to younger up-and-coming talents. After being drafted by the Cleveland Cavaliers and going through one-year stints with the Clippers and Spurs, Derek Anderson found a home with the Portland Trail Blazers, and experience some of his better professional years there. During the 2003-2004 NBA Season, Anderson wore this Air Jordan XII Low PE in black and varsity red (colloquially referred to as the ‘Flu Games’), a never-before-released low-top version of one of the most historic Air Jordan colorways ever. Anderson’s initials of D.A. and his jersey number ‘1’ are stitched on the tongue with ‘Loyal 1’ also placed on the outer heels of the shoe. Another interesting feature is the glossy finish on the pebbled red mudguard – a design feature not on the original ‘Flu Games’. Check out the detailed shots and snag this rare Air Jordan PE from qkro23 on eBay.
