EDITORS COMMENTS
In this iconic print from the 1992 Barcelona Olympics, we witness a historic moment in basketball history. The image captures Earvin "Magic". Johnson Jr. , one of the greatest players to ever grace the court, proudly displaying his gold medal during the medal presentation at the Badalona Municipal Palace of Sports in Spain. The significance of this particular Olympic Games lies in its groundbreaking decision to allow professionals to compete in basketball for the first time. As a result, the USA assembled an unstoppable team known as the Dream Team, comprised of NBA superstars who would forever change the sport's landscape. With their exceptional skills and unrivaled talent, it comes as no surprise that they dominated every match on their way to winning gold. In fact, their average margin of victory was an astonishing 44 points throughout the tournament. The Dream Team's triumph not only solidified their place in history but also sparked debates about whether they were indeed the greatest basketball team ever assembled. Their legacy continues to inspire future generations and serves as a testament to what can be achieved when extraordinary individuals come together with a common goal. This photograph by Colorsport / Andrew Cowie immortalizes Magic Johnson's joyous celebration and symbolizes both American dominance and Olympic excellence.
