Wilt Chamberlain's 1972 NBA Finals jersey, worn in Game 2 and the clinching Game 5, exceeded expectations at auction at Sotheby's, selling for $4.9 million on Wednesday night, a record for any item of Chamberlain memorabilia.
Chamberlain was named Finals MVP, his first and only Finals MVP Award. (It wasn't given out until 1969, his 14th of 15 NBA seasons; Chamberlain would sit out the 1973-74 season following the San Diego Conquistadors saga.)
