Kobe's 2016 All-Star jersey sells for $100K

Making his 18th and final All-Star Game appearance, there's no questioning the significance of Kobe Bryant's game-worn jersey from February's showcase in Toronto, especially among memorabilia collectors.

The jersey Bryant wore in the first half of the game netted $100,040 on the NBA's auction website - more than double the previous record set by LeBron James' 2014-15 game-worn jersey from his return to Cleveland ($50,040).

Despite being surrounded by the game's brightest stars, Bryant was the center of attention throughout the contest, and earned a huge standing ovation as he exited the court.

Bryant finished the All-Star Game with 10 points, seven assists, and six rebounds in 25 minutes of action.
