Michael Jordan has always been considered the greatest basketball player ever although now more than ever, fans have been interested in MJ thanks to “The Last Dance.” Over the past few weeks, numerous pieces of Michael Jordan memorabilia have been going up for auction, and fans have been scooping up everything they can. Collectors will be especially happy about the latest item to go up on the auction block as it is a game-worn jersey from the 1996-97 season.

The jersey was actually worn during a game in which Jordan only scored 18 points which is certainly an off night when you consider his standards. MJ and the Bulls were playing the Detroit Pistons that night and if you know anything about Jordan, you know that the Pistons were easily his least favorite team.

As for the value of the jersey, Goldin Auctions expects this to go for around $250,000. That’s a steep price to pay but considering this is a piece of basketball history, you would have to expect to dish out quite a bit of dough.

Collectors have been spending insane prices on numerous pieces of gear, which begs the question: how much would you pay for something like this? Let us know in the comments below.

Basketball fans know all about the Dream Team from 1992. Of course, this was the first USA Olympic Basketball team that featured athletes from the NBA. Superstars like Michael Jordan, Magic Johnson, Larry Bird, and Charles Barkley were all on the roster, making this the greatest basketball team of all time. 

Last night, ESPN started airing a new documentary on Michael Jordan and now, the hype surrounding MJ-related Dream Team gear has skyrocketed. In fact, just two weeks ago, Robert Edward Auctions began an auction for a game-worn autographed MJ jersey from the Olympics, with bidding starting at $25K. In the end, the jersey sold for a whopping $216,000.

LeBron James has been one of the most dominant players in the NBA over the last 17 years and during that time, he has been the undisputed face of the league. LeBron memorabilia tends to do extremely well at auction so it shouldn't be a surprise that one of his rookie jerseys would be expected to fetch hundreds of thousands of dollars. 

The Cleveland Cavaliers jersey LeBron wore during his fifth and eighth games in the league is now being sold through Goldin Auctions and they are hoping that the memorabilia will break a basketball jersey record of $630K.

Whenever the Los Angeles Lakers play against the Atlanta Hawks, you can rest assured that 2 Chainz, a Georgia native, will be seated courtside to watch the four quarters play out. The Hawks don’t even need to be involved for the rapper to be spotted at STAPLES Center taking in the entertainment. With an album titled Rap Or Go To The League, it’s obvious that 2 Chainz is a huge basketball fan. The death of Kobe Bryant has affected the sports and music worlds equally, with so many taking to social media to send their thoughts and prayers to the Bryant family and all other people affected by the tragic Calabasas helicopter crash. Chainz reflected on the legend’s passing, telling his fans that he would be getting some tattoos in Kobe’s honor and, this week, he followed through on that promise.

Taking to Instagram, Tity Boi showed off his brand new tats, which simply contain Bryant’s famous jersey number. Opting to place the “2” on his left knee and the “4” on his right, many are pointing out that the rapper could not have chosen a more painful spot to get the ink. Adding “Long Live Bean” in his caption, 2 Chainz is one of many to have gotten tattoo tributes to the iconic scorer, who was laid to rest alongside his daughter Gianna earlier today.

Rest in peace, Kobe and Gigi. Check out 2 Chainz’s tribute below.

Fresh off his first Grammy win this weekend thanks to Nipsey Hussle’s “Racks in The Middle,” Roddy Ricch decided to make his way by the Tonight Show with Jimmy Fallon yesterday and perform his #1 single “The Box.”

Paying homage to Kobe Bryant, Roddy hit the stage in a #8 Lakers jersey and gave a live rendition of his Please Excuse Me For Being Antisocial record. The song, which has been on the charts for 7 weeks in a row, is still at number one, beating out Selena Gomez and Justin Bieber in recent weeks.

In other news, Roddy shared a touching picture the other night following his Grammy win with Nipsey Hussle. He took to Twitter to share a smiling Lauren London and him hugging it out after their Grammy win. He said it was one of the greatest moments to be able to see her smile.
