According to Darren Rovell, a copy of Jordan’s rookie deal sold for auction through GottaHaveRockAndRoll for $57,068. (RELATED: David Hookstead Is The True King In The North When It Comes To College Football)
To be clear here, this isn’t Jordan’s actual deal. It’s a copy of it with no live ink!

Imagine paying $57,000 for a photocopy of Michael Jordan’s rookie deal. That’s simply absurd, and there’s no other way to put it!
I don’t want to rag on whoever bought this photocopy, but why would anyone ever waste their money on this? It makes no sense at all.
I guess I’d understand dropping major money for his actual contract, but spending that price of a very nice car on a photocopy is outrageous.
Why not just print it off of the internet and call it a day? Look, I just saved this poor soul more than $57,000.
If you’re going to drop major cash for sports memorabilia, then at least spend it on something worth buying.
Finally, if you haven’t watched “The Last Dance” yet, then I suggest you do it ASAP. It’s a phenomenal documentary.
If this doesn’t motivate you to be great, I don’t know what will. “Winning has a price, leadership has a price… ‘The one thing about Michael Jordan was he never asked me to do something that he didn’t ****ing do.” pic.twitter.com/sEt4eE9nTz
