LeBron James’ title-game High School Jordans might bring $200,000 at the auction
A pair of signed game-worn Jordans from LeBron James’ freshman season is up for sale and may bring $200,000. Even at the age of 14, LeBron James had large shoes to fill – size 14.
Bron’s large personality and remarkable athleticism made him famous among his classmates as a standout and as a star on the boy’s varsity basketball team, despite his young age and gigantic height. While everything LeBron has done in his career span is still being written, what he was wearing when it all began is an amusing attraction.
Heritage Auctions made available the sneakers worn by the teenage star who earned a state ring as a freshman earlier this week. Bidders might now be willing to pay $200,000 for Team Jordans from 1999, which were formerly discounted because LeBron James was too short to wear No. 23.
