Michael Jordan autographed Bulls court sells for $1.8M at auction
Michael Jordan’s autographed Bulls court smashes auction record
Michael Jordan’s autographed game-used Chicago Bulls court has sold for $1.8 million at auction, setting a new benchmark for Bulls memorabilia.
The historic piece-signed by Jordan and Scottie Pippen-hit the block on 19 July 2026. The court fragment, used during a Bulls game in the 1997-98 season, drew fierce bidding before hammering at $1.8M.
What happened?
The auction took place on 19 July 2026 at a leading sports memorabilia house. The court segment, featuring the Bulls’ home parquet floor, carried signatures from both Jordan and Pippen. The final price crushed the previous Bulls record of $1.2M for a Jordan jersey.
The sale underscores the enduring demand for Jordan-era Bulls artifacts. Collectors chased the piece after it was listed as the centerpiece of a summer auction block.
Why it matters for Michael Jordan
For Jordan fans, the sale is a milestone. The court ties directly to his final championship run with the Bulls. The $1.8M bid reflects Jordan’s unmatched market pull decades after his last game.
Pippen’s co-signature adds another layer. The duo’s partnership defined the Bulls’ six-title dynasty. Their autographs on a single piece amplify its rarity and value.
What comes next?
Experts expect Bulls memorabilia to keep climbing. The next big lot could be another game-used floor segment or a championship ring. Jordan’s name remains the gold standard in sports auctions.
The buyer’s identity hasn’t been disclosed. The court will likely enter a private collection rather than a museum-at least for now.
