Michael Jordan’s game-worn and autographed jersey from Game 2 of the 1998 NBA Finals—often associated with his “Last Dance” season—has been sold for a record price of $14 million. Multiple outlets report it as the most expensive basketball memorabilia ever sold, with figures also stated in pounds for UK coverage.
Hunt Auctions announced the sale as a private treaty transaction, naming Miami real estate investor Ron Firman as the buyer. The jersey is described as the road uniform Jordan wore in the red version during Game 2, when the Chicago Bulls beat the Utah Jazz to tie the series. The Bulls ultimately win the 1998 Finals in six games, completing Jordan’s sixth and final championship with the franchise.
While coverage largely aligns on the jersey details, reported prices vary by outlet due to currency conversion and wording (some outlets describe earlier records or compare it with other sports memorabilia). Several sources also note the broader resurgence of interest in Jordan’s final season, including the Netflix documentary series “The Last Dance,” released in 2020.
