A 19-year-old thrift shopper could be in line for a massive payday after buying what turned out to be a warm-up jacket worn by late basketball icon Wilt Chamberlain for just $3.07 at a Goodwill store.
The rare piece is now up for auction through Sotheby’s, where it is expected to fetch between $150,000 and $250,000 after being authenticated as a jacket worn by the Los Angeles Lakers great during the 1972 NBA Finals and throughout the 1972-73 season — his final season in the league.
