His jersey broke every record Kobe Bryant up for auction!
After Diego Armando Maradona’s jersey, as well as the ball from the 1986 match between Argentina and England for the World Cup in Mexico, the appearance with the number “24” auctioned online by a well-known American fashion house.
Specifically, as it became known, the jersey of the late American, who was killed in a helicopter accident in January 2020, was sold at auction for 5.4 million euros with its new owner, however, maintaining his anonymity.
This particular jersey was worn by Kobe Bryant on April 23, 2008, when he, celebrating a three-point shot against the Denver Nuggets, held the jersey and shouted for the victory of the “lake people”.
Another record smashed at #SothebysNewYork!
