Watch the Highlights
LeBron James can be seen playing throughout this 2014 game (referred to as the “Nickname Game”) wearing this very photo-matched “King James” jersey during which he scored 36 points and had 5 assists against the Brooklyn Nets. During the game various players from both teams wore their nicknames with Kevin Garnett wearing “Big Ticket”, Ray Allen wearing “J. Shuttlesworth” and Paul Peirce wearing “Truth”.
LeBron James is today recognized as a symbol of success both on the court and off of it, and Sotheby’s is very excited to offer this historic jersey.
