No media members were allowed inside the gym, so no footage from the event, which also featured Bill Russell, Maya Moore, Dwyane Wade, Derrick Rose and Joakim Noah, among others, has been publicly released. Later that year, Barack Obama required 12 stitches after being hit in the lip by an inadvertent elbow during a separate pickup basketball game. 

That being said, the bidding is scheduled to take place on the 28th of February. Hopefully hoop fans could get their checkbooks ready as the particular ball is bound to be sold at a mouth-watering and staggering price. How often can one get a ball signed by all legends at once?
