A card of Cooper Flagg carrying a patch from his NBA debut sold at auction for $8,050,000, making it the third most expensive card in NBA history.
The forward joined Dallas as this year's top draft pick. An earlier Flagg card had previously sold for $366,000, a fraction of the price this one commanded.
Only two basketball cards have fetched more. A joint card of Michael Jordan and Kobe Bryant went for $12.9m, and one pairing Jordan with LeBron James sold for $10m.
Across all sports, the $8,050,000 figure ranks sixth all-time. Fanatics Collect handled the sale.
