It was one of the pretty images of the end of 2024 when Victor Wembanyama replied favorably to the request of a fan to “exchange” his jersey. Wemby's photo with a child size jersey alongside the young fan proudly brandishing his “City Edition” jersey with which the French interior had just played against the Nets had gone around the planet basketball.
But the traditional formula recalling that the NBA is above all a business ultimately does not concern only the players and the franchises of the League, but also their fans!
The weekend of all the follies
It is therefore with amazement (and an emotional in tears) that Victor Wembanyama, whose season is now over, learned shortly after his jersey had found himself on the auction market via the “Goldin” platform, less than three weeks later!
The starting price had been set at $ 10,000, and the auctions went up to $ 33,000 yesterday, the last day before acting, where everything accelerated. The final sale price amounts to $ 73,200 !
All “Wemby” stamped products have not finished making recipe on the resale market, like Record sale From the Panini Prizm Nebula 1/1 2023 card from Victor Wembanyama this weekend. It was sold at auction for $ 850,000, also via “Goldin”.
