That is sweet.

Did you get that framed and matted through the SI order process?

No, the wife bought the cover through SI for Father’s Day. I recently got it framed and matted at JoAnn’s (I know, not my favorite store, but I found a 50% coupon). Figured I could customize it better on my own than through SI. JoAnn’s had a nice selection of colors for the mats, etc., which allowed me to get the basketball mat and the others in UCLA colors.

Textured basketball?

That looks fantastic. I’m going to the local frame shop tomorrow to see if they have that and to blatantly rip off your design.

I have one of those covers as well.

It’s framed and hanging right behind my desk here at work.

Looks gorgeous

Is that the 11×14 reprint that you got through SI.com or is it the actual magazine?

I ordered 2 of the reprints and have one in my office, but it’s just in a regular 11×14 frame and because the image isn’t quite 11×14, there is a white border around it.
