Plumlee wears the number one yet in this card there are curves in the white part... For those of you who are familiar with NBA jerseys, only the numbers have holes like this... Panini is a huge brand so just wondering how this card was made... did they somehow take multiple parts of the jersey and put it together?

Could be either an event jersey or part of the teams wordmark. Look on getty images for panini's rookie photoshoot so you can compare.

It's entirely possible his rookie photoshoot had him in another number.

The card says event worn material. Also, the patch/embroidery looks to be the black part on a white backing.

OK...here's my shot it. Don't laugh but.....I'm thinking it's part of his shoes he wore, Nike emblem from his left foot. Look close at the card upside down and the 2 stitch marks that are on it. The black part looks like shoe material.

My point with the above is that the material is likely not game used, and it doesn't even necessarily need to be a jersey. It could be any item that has that mesh material and embroidery, which Plumlee would have worn at an event.

Thanks for the input everyone... makes sense that it could be from an event with possibly another jersey with a different number...

Check the back of the card, in small print it should say
event worn patch or game worn.
If its an event worn patch, it could be from anything. Jacket, shorts, practice jersey.

And on the upside down pic, it cant be a nike swoosh.
bottom right corner shows threads going down.

LOL...your probably right. I was going by his shoes in this pic with white stitching going up and down the shoe with the Nike emblem.

I think I can provide some insight. I have been collecting sports cards for around 8 years but have recently been transitioning more towards complete game worn/used memorabilia. Like someone stated earlier, the patch is from an event worn jersey from one of their NBA rookie events and all of the rookies wear jerseys with the #88. This is probably because some of the rookies had yet to choose/receive their official NBA jersey numbers and also because the #88 has more patch material for cards than single digit jersey #'s and #88 has more breaks than say #1, which makes for a more appealing looking card.
