A trading card of NBA star LeBron James has sold at auction with collectibles marketplace Goldin for $2.4million, including buyer’s premium.
The unique 2020-21 Panini Flawless Triple Logoman of James includes embedded segments of the 37-year-old’s game-worn jerseys from his time at the Cleveland Cavaliers, the Miami Heat and the Los Angeles Lakers.
It had been anticipated that it could break the all-time record for a sports trading card, which is a Honus Wagner baseball card that was sold for $6.6m in 2021.
Panini’s 2020-21 Flawless release included five Triple Logoman cards, made up of patches from three-star players, though James’ was the only card that features three patches from one player.
The four other cards include patches from Giannis Antetokounmpo, Kevin Durant and Stephen Curry; Draymond Green, Stephen Curry and Klay Thompson; Anthony Edwards, LaMelo Ball and Tyrese Haliburton, and Jayson Tatum, Luka Doncic and Zion Williamson.
