This Michael Jordan game-worn jersey just became the most expensive piece of basketball memorabilia ever

Michael Jordan hasn't played an NBA game in more than two decades, but "His Airness" is still putting up record-breaking numbers.

A game-worn, autographed Jordan jersey from the 1998 NBA Finals , the Finals featured in the hit documentary "The Last Dance," has sold for an eye-popping $14 million in a private sale, making it the most expensive piece of basketball memorabilia ever sold.

Pennsylvania-based Hunt Auctions announced the blockbuster deal Monday morning, revealing that Miami real estate investor Ron Firman is the proud new owner of the iconic red Chicago Bulls jersey.

Chicago eventually captured its sixth championship in eight seasons, completing Jordan's legendary run with the franchise and further solidifying himself as the GOAT (Greatest of all Time) in my opinion.

"While Michael Jordan's importance within the sports memorabilia marketplace has long been established it has now escalated to an elite asset class more typically reserved for iconic works of art," Hunt Auctions president David Hunt said.

And he's not exaggerating.

The only jersey ahead of Jordan's? Babe Ruth's famous "called shot" jersey from the 1932 World Series, which fetched an astonishing $24.12 million in 2024.

But here's where things get even crazier.

This is now the third Jordan jersey from the 1998 NBA Finals to sell for at least $10 million.

His Game 1 jersey sold for approximately $10.1 million in 2022, while his Game 3 jersey brought in roughly $12.3 million just last month.

That's more than $36 million spent on three jerseys from one championship series.
