Kobe Bryant's Staples Center Locker Sells for Record $2.9 Million

The auctioned locker, saved from demolition in 2018, becomes the most valuable sports locker ever sold, with proceeds benefiting the Lakers Youth Foundation.

The locker was expected to fetch between $1 million and $1.5 million but sold for $2.9 million after intense bidding.
It is now the third-most expensive piece of Kobe Bryant memorabilia ever sold.
The locker was salvaged during the Staples Center renovation and later sold to a private collector.
A portion of the proceeds will support the Los Angeles Lakers Youth Foundation.
Other auctioned items included Michael Jordan's game-worn shorts and Diego Maradona's autographed jersey.
