The hoop and backboard upon which Michael Jordan made his iconic ‘Shot’ in 1989 sold for a hefty $18,000 during a sports memorabilia auction held by Heritage Auctions last month.

“It seems fans can’t get enough Jordan memorabilia following the 10-episode documentary The Last Dance,” said Chris Ivy, Director of Sports Memorabilia at Heritage Auctions.

Ivy said it wasn’t just Jordan material that drew aggressive bidders, but several pieces of Bulls history were the most expensive pieces in the auction as well.

“Jordan was just 26 years old in 1989 when he sank a buzzer-beating jumper over the outstretched arm of the Cleveland Cavaliers’ dinged-up Craig Ehlo and straight into the basket offered in the auction,” said the auction group.

The basket was sold with a letter of provenance, as well as a letter of authenticity from the Heritage Auctions group.
