LeBron James' Triple Logoman card was among the most hyped collectibles auctioned off by Goldin in June 2022. The 2020-21 Panini Flawless Triple Logoman had the NBA logo cut from three game-worn jerseys of the four-time NBA MVP, with LeBron's pictures as a Cleveland Cavaliers, Miami Heat and Los Angeles Lakers player below the embedded logos.
The collectible was sold to a high-end card-collecting enthusiast for $2.4 million. It isn't surprising that the value was so high. Initially, it was believed to be around $1.5 million, but the price shot up.
The LeBron James Triple Logoman card is one of a kind. It was the first Panini Triple Logoman card and unique because of the details and inclusions of the exclusive logos cut from his game-worn jerseys of all three teams he has played for in his illustrious NBA career.
A high-end collector, Matt Allen, had this to say about the card in an interview with ESPN:

"In our mind, the value of the card would not have broken $1.5 million privately before the hype. We were all somewhere in that range, and then it got in the public eye. Then it more or less created a lot of hype and it was like looking for the Willy Wonka golden ticket."
Meanwhile, the executive chairman and founder of Goldin, Ken Goldin, reckoned that card was worth millions the moment they pulled it out.
LeBron James continues to be one of the most popular NBA stars
LeBron James may be heading into the final few seasons of his illustrious NBA career, but the 38-year-old remains among the most popular players in the league.
"King James" is still one of the faces of the NBA and continues performing at a high level.
He's coming off a Western Conference finals run despite playing with an injured foot that needed surgery this offseason. James also nearly averaged 30 points a game for the second consecutive year, a phenomenal feat considering he turned 38 last December and will be 39 in five months' time.
LeBron James recently confirmed at the ESPYs that he will return to play his 21st season after pondering retirement following the LA Lakers' sweep bu the Denver Nuggets in the Western Conference finals.
