在一场网络拍卖中科比·布莱恩特在他职业生涯谢幕战赛后身上披着的那条毛巾被拍出3万3千美元的高价
The towel that was draped over the shoulders of Kobe Bryant during his farewell speech following his final NBA game sold for over $33,000 at an online
auction1, CNN reported on Sunday.
The Lakers star ended his speech at
Staples2 Center in Los Angeles with his
trademark3 "Mamba Out" before walking off the court. A fan grabbed the towel, beginning a stretch in which that souvenir has been sold multiple times.
The winning bid for the towel on Sunday-along with two tickets from the game on April 13, 2016-was $33,077.16. Bryant scored 60 points in the Lakers' 101-96 win over the Utah Jazz that night.
Jeff Woolf, president of Iconic
Auctions4, told CNN that the buyer is known for having the largest collection of Lakers memorabilia worldwide. Woolf
noted5 that the same
bidder6 previously7 spent $30,000 on a yearbook from Bryant's middle-school days.
