LeBron James' game-used jersey fetched $3.7 million at auction on Friday, breaking the previous record for one of his jerseys by five times.
As the 38-year-old LA Lakers legend approaches the NBA's all-time scoring record, interest in the selling of his jersey is even stronger than usual.
The Miami Heat jersey that LeBron James wore in game seven victories over the San Antonio Spurs of the 2013 NBA Finals was sold by Sotheby's in New York.
It broke the prior record, which stood at $630,000 for an All-Star James jersey worn in 2020.
Michael Jordan’s 1998 NBA Finals jersey, which sold for $10.1 million in September 2022, is currently the most valuable such item.
Diego Maradona’s “Hand of God” jersey sold for $9.3 million at Sotheby’s in London last year.
James needs just 178 points to eclipse Lakers legend Kareem Abdul-Jabbar’s tally of 38,387 points, one of the most coveted and longstanding records in basketball.
Sotheby’s also sold a dress worn by the late Princess Diana for $604,800 Friday.
