“Looks like Jorgambler blew all his money” – Michael Jordan’s 90s Mercedes Benz goes up for auction at just $23, NBA fans left SHOCKED

Michael Jordan is undoubtedly one of the biggest superstars in the sports industry. He is one of the best players ever to touch a basketball. Also, he’s the reason behind the widespread of the NBA and one of the very first global superstars from the league. Every genuine basketball fan wishes to own something from Michael Jordan’s illustrious career. So they can forever remember his “Airness.”

But that’s not possible for most of the fans. As buying such memorabilia is too expensive and not possible for many. Michael Jordan’s game-worn shoes, jerseys, and other owned items have crashed the market for million of dollars. And, the only reason for the heavy price is Black Jesus’ ownership. So many would expect the same when his car is up in the action.

But unexpectedly that’s not the case and Michael Jordan’s 1996 Mercedes-Benz S600 Lorinser is being auctioned for just $23. The stylish two-door sedan even has an appearance in MJ’s docu-series “The Last Dance.” The reason behind it being auctioned off for such a cheap price is to show respect for Jordan’s iconic jersey number, #23.

This has been possible because of the livestream shopping platform, Whatnot. The fans would be able to participate in the auction by joining the drop on their app. The car is also part of a special display for The National Sports Collectors Convention in Chicago from July 26-30.

The motto behind Whatnot’s surprising act which is going to bless a fan is very simple. As they just want to “pay homage to the golden age of sport and transporting fans back.”  But the NBA fans aren’t no simple ones and they always find something or the other to troll a superstar. And, this time they are busy mocking Michael Jordan.
