A piece of it Kobe Bryant‘S legacy is no longer on the market… the warm-up jacket he wore before his last-ever NBA game just sold at auction — and it netted the seller a small fortune!
TMZ Sports has learned… the thread the Black Mamba pulled just before dropping 60 points on the Utah Jazz at Staples Center in April 2016 drew 35 bids — and officially sold for $336,000.
The jacket – photos of which were taken for authenticity – had on the SCP Auctions block since mid-July.
The gold Adidas piece, size XL, is amazing… it features purple accents and patches that celebrate historic moments in the Lakers’ franchise history. From their 31 conference titles to their then 16 championships, it’s clear why someone dropped some serious money for the prized asset.
As for how it helped Kobe, it all played a role in the end of his storybook NBA. The legend drained 22 of his 50 shots from the field that night…while shooting 10-12 from the free throw line.
After the remarkable performance… Kobe thanked the fans for their love and support – and hit them with a now iconic line – “What more can I say? Mamba out.”
Also unknown who the winning bid went to…but congratulations on scoring the piece!
