When it comes to Kobe memorabilia, which has been in high demand since the tragic helicopter crash which took the life of Kobe, his 13-year-old daughter Gianna, and seven others in January 2020, this is as rare as it gets.
Who else can say they own a piece of basketball history that was used to perfect Kobe Bryant’s jump shot on his rise to stardom? It’s well worth the price and truly one of a kind.
