“When this card went to the block, we purposefully avoided speculation on a price because this was an important moment for the market to decide on the value of Luka’s best trading card. The card stood on its own merits and the market placed it where it belongs.”
“If you include private sales, Luka now sits between the high sales for LeBron and Jordan,” he continued. “The market confirmed Luka is in rare air in terms of collectability with this sale.”
“It is his premier card making its public debut while he is playing extremely well. It’s a very exciting moment,” Craig added.
