(New York, NY) -- A pair of signed, game-worn Michael Jordan sneakers are breaking the bank.
Fine arts company Sotheby's announced that the shoes worn by MJ in the second half of Game 2 of the 1998 NBA Finals recently sold for more than two-point-two million dollars. That's the highest price ever paid at auction for a pair of sneakers.
In that game, Jordan led the Chicago Bulls with 37 points in a win over the Utah Jazz.
Just days later, Jordan and the Bulls completed the "Last Dance," capturing their sixth NBA championship.
