Jordan's 'Last Dance' jersey sells for £9m
A Michael Jordan jersey from his 'Last Dance' season sells for $12.3m, a record for a piece of Jordan memorabilia.
Michael Jordan's game three jersey from his Final Dance season has shattered the record for a piece of Jordan memorabilia, selling for $12.3m (£9.3m) at a digital auction. This record-breaking price was achieved at Joopiter, the digital auction house co-founded by Pharrell Williams, with an estimated selling range of $10-15m (£7.5-£11.3m). The iconic jersey was worn during game three of the 1998 NBA Finals, which marked the conclusion of an era that transformed basketball into a global cultural phenomenon.
Jordan, who led the Bulls to a 4-2 victory in the series, earned the Finals Most Valuable Player award in all six seasons he played. His previous record for a piece of Jordan memorabilia was $10.1m (£7.6m) for his game one jersey from the same Finals. The previous record belonged to Babe Ruth's 1932 World Series jersey, which fetched $24.1m (£18.2m) in 2024. The Jordan jersey stands as one of the most important and valuable game-worn sports artifacts in history.
