The game-worn, autographed jersey from Jordan's final championship season with the Bulls is now the most expensive piece of basketball memorabilia ever sold.
A Michael Jordan road jersey from the 1998 NBA Finals has sold privately for $14 million, setting a new record for basketball memorabilia. The jersey is game-worn and autographed, and comes from the "Last Dance" season, when Jordan led the Bulls to their sixth and final championship of the decade.
That 1998 title, clinched against the Jazz, closed out Jordan's second three-peat and remains one of the most documented runs in sports history thanks to the later ESPN docuseries that gave the season its nickname.
Game-worn jerseys from that specific Finals have been on a steady climb in the collectibles market, repeatedly resetting the price ceiling for basketball items. This latest sale, tied to Game 2 of that series, pushes the number higher again, underscoring how far collectors are willing to go for physical pieces of Jordan's final Bulls championship.
