The Miami Heat T-shirt with which LeBron James won his second NBA title in 2013 sold this Friday for $3.68 million at an auction held in New York by Sotheby's.
James wore the shirt in the seventh and final game of the 2013 finals against the San Antonio Spurs, one of the most iconic moments of his career: that day he won his second consecutive championship and his second finals MVP.
With 37 points and 12 rebounds, LeBron crowned what was perhaps his best season with a victory of 95-88 against a Spurs team led by the legendary Tim Duncan.
The white shirt has the number 6 that James used in Miami, the team he would leave at the end of the following season after losing in the finals against the Spurs.

The garment was sold this Friday for a hammer price of $3 million, which with taxes and fees raised the final amount to $3.68 million.
Those $3 million are on the lower end of what Sotheby's expected to raise, which had estimated the price at up to $5 million.
Even so, that price makes it one of the most expensive sports jerseys ever auctioned, although far from the over $9 million raised by the one Maradona wore during the famous "Hand of God" incident or the over $10 million paid for the one Michael Jordan wore in a 1998 finals game.
