A piece of Los Angeles basketball history is set to go under the hammer — the game ball used by Kobe Bryant, Shaquille O’Neal, and the Lakers in their 2000 NBA Finals victory.

The ball, from Game 6 of the Lakers’ 116-111 win over the Indiana Pacers, marks L.A.’s first championship since 1988 and the beginning of the iconic Kobe-Shaq era. Sotheby’s “Winter Sports Classic” in New York will feature the ball among $30 million worth of sports memorabilia, with bidding expected to reach between $300,000 and $500,000.

The auction also includes a full set of Chicago Bulls championship rings, Kevin Durant’s game-worn Golden State Warriors debut jersey from October 25, 2016, and Shohei Ohtani’s uniform from the Dodgers’ 2024 “Jackie Robinson Day” game.

Brahm Wachter, Sotheby’s Head of Modern Collectibles, said the exhibition highlights “the evolution of greatness across generations,” offering fans and collectors a chance to experience the history, artistry, and emotional power of sports in one place. Bidding opens November 25 and runs through December 11.
