A devoted fan of Victor Wembanyama didn't hesitate to invest in the hype surrounding the NBA's emerging star. The rookie's debut jersey with the San Antonio Spurs was auctioned at Sotheby's last week, initially projected to fetch around $100,000. However, the bidding competition exceeded expectations, with an unidentified buyer securing the jersey for an impressive $762,000 on Tuesday. While the price may seem steep, Wembanyama's exceptional performance on the court has made him a standout player. With notable averages of 18.6 points, 9.1 rebounds, 2.5 assists, one steal, and 2.6 blocks in 14 games, the investment in this piece of basketball history could prove to be a lucrative one for the buyer.
Wembanyama is set to continue showcasing his talent in the upcoming games, and the enthusiastic supporter, now $762,000 richer, will undoubtedly be cheering him on with fervor.
