Caitlin Clark joins Jordan, LeBron, Kobe in Goldin auction with rare basketball memorabilia

Michael Jordan, LeBron James and Kobe Bryant are in rare company when it comes to basketball collectibles, with few current or modern stars comparing in terms of demand and value.

But they may soon have a new challenger—WNBA star Caitlin Clark.

Goldin’s June Elite Auction, which runs through June 29, features rare memorabilia from Jordan, James and Bryant. It is also highlighted by a signed 2022 Bowman University rookie card of Clark.
