( UPDATE: On Wednesday, Clark scored 33 points in Iowa’s victory over Minnesota, breaking Pete Maravich’s 3 667-point NCAA career scoring record. )
According to Ken Goldin, CEO and founder of Goldin Auctions, the shirt Caitlin Clark wore to tear the NCAA women’s basketball all-time scoring record against Michigan on February 15 might fetch around$ 200, 000 at auction.
Clark is still wearing the jersey for the rest of the time, which means she is not only playing in a$ 200, 000 shirt each game, but the value of the shirt could rise even more if she breaks any new information in it.
The more important a game-used shirt becomes, according to Goldin, the more it is worn.
The only thing that was depreciate a uniform was if it was destroyed. According to Goldin,” a blood stain had hardly decrease the value, especially if the game was trying to rebound.” The game game, both baskets, and the scorebook were all pulled after Clark’s record-breaking performance. According to a spokesperson, Iowa will give Clark the specific ball that led to the record-breaking point ( a 3-pointer from the logo ), and the athletic department is still deciding where the rest of the memorabilia will go.
Some of the antiques might end up in the Springfield, Massachusetts, Naismith Basketball Hall of Fame.
Another Clark-related memorabilia has a sizable price tag.
According to Goldin,” I would suggest likely$ 50, 000 and upwards for the shoes she was wearing when she did it.” Your nets are generally small, but this is a significant event, so I’m going to throw them at$ 25, 000.
If Clark signs the objects, the value will increase by” 10- to- 20 %,” he said.
Clark is even creating information on the market for trading cards. According to information from Professional Sports Authenticator ( PSA ), Clark’s 2022 Bowman University Chrome one-of-one Superfractor Auto set the record for the highest recorded sale of a women’s basketball card at$ 78, 000 in January.
Since May 2023, PSA has seen an increase in Clark card entries. According to PSA information provided to Sportico, grade proposals crossed 1, 000 for the first time in February 2024.
On Wednesday against Minnesota, Clark would need to best her career high, 49, to say the step, just 51 points apart from breaking Pete Maravich’s all-time NCAA rating history. Then, she’ll likely defeat Maravich in a Sunday home game against No. 2 Ohio Express
