Cooper Flagg’s NBA Debut Jersey Just Sold for a Record $1 Million

Cooper Flagg may have only just started his NBA career, but his memorabilia is already fetching impressive sums. A jersey Flagg wore during his NBA debut privately sold for $1 million via Sotheby’s earlier this month, setting two new records in the process. It is the highest publicly recorded price for any Flagg collectible and also the highest price for any jersey sold through Sotheby’s NBA Auctions. That seven-figure result underscores the continued demand for sports memorabilia tied not only to top players but also to rookies. The jersey, which Flagg wore in the first half of his first game with the Dallas Mavericks in October 2025, represents the beginning of what many believe could be a historic trajectory. Playing against the San Antonio Spurs, Flagg recorded a double-double with 10 points, 10 rebounds, and a steal, showing his generational potential. He has been smashing records ever since, becoming the youngest player in NBA history to score 40 points in a game, record double-digit assists, and post multiple 25-point performances. He also just broke the league record for points by a teenager with a remarkable 49. The jersey marks the start of a potentially historic legacy and will no doubt increase in value if Flagg continues to perform at such a level. One collector has already made that wise investment, but others can follow suit. Sotheby’s has teamed up with the NBA for an auction dedicated to the brightest young stars in basketball. Running throughout March, the NBA Rookie Debut sale will include the first game jerseys of many promising players. The 2025 rookie debut uniforms, again, represent the early beginnings of basketball’s next generation. One standout is the jersey V.J. Edgecombe wore during his historic debut with the Philadelphia 76ers in October 2025. He scored 34 points over 42 minutes, helping his team to defeat the Boston Celtics and setting an NBA record for most points in a debut. Another highlight is the jersey Kon Knueppel wore in his first game with the Charlotte Hornets in October 2025, when he notched 11 points, five rebounds, and one assist in 25 minutes to help defeat the Brooklyn Nets. Fast-forward to November 2025, Knueppel became the fastest player in NBA history to reach 50 made three-pointers. Only 14 games later, he made his 100th career three-pointer quicker than any other player in the league. Other top lots include jerseys worn by rookies Dylan Harper and Derik Queen in their NBA debuts with the San Antonio Spurs and New Orleans Pelicans, respectively. “As the official game-worn source of the NBA, we’re thrilled to keep the energy going with our upcoming Rookie Debut Auction, giving collectors the chance to own the very first pieces of the league’s next big stars,” Brahm Wachter, Sotheby’s head of modern collectables, said in a statement. The NBA Rookie Debut auction is open for bidding from March 17 to 23.
