  • Sotheby's will auction the basketball used in Game 4 of the NBA Finals, where the New York Knicks achieved a historic comeback against the San Antonio Spurs.
  • The ball is expected to fetch up to $3 million, according to sports business analyst Daven Rovell.
  • The auction also includes other NBA memorabilia, such as jerseys worn by Victor Wembanyama and Jalen Brunson, and other items like an NBA-branded Louis Vuitton bag.

The basketball used during the New York Knicks' historic comeback victory in Game 4 of the NBA Finals will be put up for auction by Sotheby's in New York starting June 30. The Knicks famously overcame a 29-point deficit to defeat the San Antonio Spurs 107-106 on June 10, 2026, marking the largest comeback in NBA Finals history.

Sotheby's website highlights the ball as a witness to this "improbable and decisive moment" that "completely changed the course of the championship." While the auction house has not provided an estimated price, sports business analyst Daven Rovell suggests the ball could command as much as $3 million.

This significant piece of memorabilia is part of a larger NBA auction. Also featured are the jerseys worn by Victor Wembanyama of the San Antonio Spurs during a crucial Game 3 win and Jalen Brunson of the Knicks during Game 1, where he delivered a standout performance. The auction extends to other NBA stars' jerseys, including LeBron James, OG Anunoby, Jose Alvarado, and Keldon Johnson. Additional items include an NBA-branded Louis Vuitton bag and a net used in the first game of the 2026 Finals.
