Slam Dunk Collectibles Up for Grabs!…
Attention all basketball-treasure hunters, it’s time to empty those piggy banks! Sotheby’s is set to unveil a legendary slam dunk of a sale. Game-worn jerseys from none other than Kobe Bryant and Michael Jordan will be hitting the auction block, primed to break some records and wallets.
This treasure trove of NBA nostalgia is not only a collector’s dream but is expected to rake in $20 million! Get ready to toss elbows at Sotheby’s New York galleries starting March 21, as these jerseys are the basketball version of Willy Wonka’s Golden Ticket. Sotheby’s maestro of Modern Collectibles, Brahm Wachter, claims these rare jerseys are “the crème de la crème of sportswear.” Not UV-protected, mere mortal collectors beware!
Michael Jordan’s rookie jersey dates back to his Chicago Bulls preseason magic circa 1984. This autographed relic showcases why MJ doesn’t just fly in shoes—you could practically slam dunk yourself by just owning it! Meanwhile, Kobe’s purple and gold getup from the 1996 Lakers era is ready to send Prices flying. Although his rookie season stats were a gentle warm-up, these jerseys are far from being benchwarmers in sports history!
