Kobe Bryant's Dad Is Auctioning Off His NBA Championship Ring

March 20, 2024

Kobe Bryant's father, Joe "Jellybean" Bryant, is auctioning off his late son's 2000 NBA Championship ring.

"This is not an executive version of the Championship ring, but the EXACT ring given to Kobe Bryant and other Lakers players," the auction listing reads.

In 2013, Kobe called out his parents for trying to sell memorabilia he gave to them.

The Bryant family eventually reached a settlement allowing Kobe's parents to auction six memorabilia items totaling $500,000 in exchange for a public apology.

This suggests Kobe would be quite angry at his dad if he was still alive.

Neither Kobe's parents nor his widow, Vanessa, have commented on the sale.

The auction ends today, and the winning bid should exceed 100K.
