1986 Fleer Sticker #5 Julius Erving PSA 9 – The Original Icon Who Brought Flight to the NBA

Before there was MJ, there was Dr. J—the player who revolutionized the game above the rim. Julius Erving blended elegance, power, and creativity in a way the league had never seen, becoming the face of both the ABA and, later, the NBA. A former MVP, 11-time All-Star, and key piece of the 1983 champion 76ers, Erving’s influence extended far beyond statistics—he helped shape the league’s identity in the modern era.

This PSA 9 example of Sticker #5 from the 1986 Fleer insert set captures Erving mid-motion, framed by the bold yellow border and classic 76ers colors. The card presents with strong centering, sharp corners, and clean surface quality, which is especially valuable given how prone these stickers are to edge wear and printing flaws.

For collectors, this is more than a sticker—it’s a tribute to one of the most influential and beloved players in basketball history, and a must-have piece in any serious 1986 Fleer build.
