A basketball jersey belonging to a college basketball coaching legend is returning home, all thanks to Drew Brees.
The New Orleans Saints quarterback purchased a Purdue basketball jersey worn by John Wooden in the 1930s and gave it to the school on loan to be displayed on campus at Mackey Arena.
The Journal & Courier in Indiana reported an auction sale price of $264,000.
Brees, who played college football at Purdue, said in a Twitter message, "Such an honor to bring John Wooden's 1930-1932 jersey back home to Purdue. His legend and legacy started here!
