- The only known Michael Jordan game-worn North Carolina Tar Heels basketball jersey sold for $1.38 million Saturday(8 May 2021) with Heritage Auctions.
- The jersey was photo-matched to the 1982-83 season, when Jordan won NCAA Player of the Year from The Sporting News, and is the same jersey he wore on the cover of the magazine when he won the award.
- The sale broke the previous record for a Jordan jersey, also set by Heritage in October, when a game-worn Chicago Bulls Jordan jersey from the 1986-87 season sold for $480,000.
- This isn’t the first time the jersey has been up for auction, as it sold for $63,500 in 1999, which was a record at the time.
- Jordan memorabilia, including his rookie cards, continues to smash previous records. Two Fleer PSA 10 rookie cards sold for $738,000 each, with more cards coming on the market in recent weeks looking to push past those records as well.
