Statement Edition jersey and matching shorts worn by Sam Merrill (#5) during the Cleveland Cavaliers' 2025–26 season. Presented together as a matched set, the jersey was collected on-site from Cleveland's 114–102 victory over the Toronto Raptors in the decisive Game 7 of the opening round on May 3, 2026, securing the Cavaliers' advancement to the Eastern Conference Semifinals.

Merrill contributed 13 points in the series-clinching victory, providing timely perimeter scoring as part of Cleveland's balanced offensive effort. His performance helped propel the Cavaliers into the Eastern Conference Semifinals, and the team ultimately advanced to the Eastern Conference Finals during one of the franchise's deepest playoff runs in recent years.

Known for his outside shooting, Merrill averaged 12.8 points and 3.0 made three-pointers per game during the 2025–26 regular season, establishing himself as one of Cleveland's most dependable perimeter threats. His ability to stretch the floor and capitalize on scoring opportunities made him an important contributor throughout the Cavaliers' successful campaign.

Matched jersey-and-shorts sets are considerably less common than individual uniform pieces. Combined with a Gold OVD-witnessed jersey from a series-clinching Game 7, this set preserves a game-specific artifact from one of Merrill's most significant postseason performances with Cleveland.

The jersey features a Gold OVD, as a TRuEST™ authenticator was on-site to witness its usage, verifying Sam Merrill's direct participation. The matching shorts carry a Silver OVD, as the usage was not witnessed by a TRuEST™ authenticator and are partner attested as game worn by the Cleveland Cavaliers. Condition may vary slightly from photos, with unique signs of use that highlight their authenticity.
