Kobe Bryant’s Series-Clinching NBA Finals Sneakers Could Become One of the Most Watched Sports Memorabilia Auctions of the Year
Photo-Matched and Dual-Signed Adidas “The Kobe 1” Sneakers from the Lakers’ 2001 NBA Championship Victory Open at $10,000 with a $240,000 Buy-It-Now Option
MESA, AZ / ACCESS Newswire / June 15, 2026 / Infinite Auctions is a wholly owned subsidiary of Medical Care Technologies, Inc. (OTC PINK:MDCE) has announced the upcoming offering of one of the most significant Kobe Bryant game-worn artifacts to reach the public marketplace in recent years: Kobe Bryant’s game-worn and dual-signed Adidas “The Kobe 1” sneakers worn during Game 5 of the 2001 NBA Finals, photo-matched to the Los Angeles Lakers’ championship-clinching victory over the Philadelphia 76ers.
A portion of the proceeds from the sale will be donated to the Lakers Youth Foundation, creating an opportunity for collectors to participate in preserving basketball history while supporting youth-focused community initiatives.
The auction is scheduled to open soon through Infinite Auctions. Collectors and fans may preview the offering and register for bidding notifications by visiting:

Bidding will begin at $10,000, with an optional Buy-It-Now price of $240,000 available to qualified buyers.
The sneakers originate from June 15, 2001, when Bryant helped lead the Lakers to a decisive Game 5 victory, securing the franchise’s second consecutive NBA Championship. The 2000-01 Lakers remain one of the most dominant playoff teams in league history, finishing the postseason with an extraordinary 15-1 record.
What makes this offering especially significant is the convergence of several elite collecting attributes rarely found in a single artifact:
-
Worn during a championship-clinching NBA Finals victory
-
Photo-matched to Game 5 of the 2001 NBA Finals
-
Dual signed by Kobe Bryant
-
Original Adidas “The Kobe 1” signature model
-
Directly connected to one of the most dominant championship runs in NBA history
-
Accompanied by professional authentication and photo-match documentation
“This is the type of artifact collectors wait years to see enter the market,” said Marshall Perkins, CEO of Infinite Auctions. “Championship photo-matched Kobe Bryant memorabilia represents the highest tier of basketball collecting. When you add the historical significance of a Finals-clinching game and the charitable impact through the Lakers Youth Foundation, it becomes much more than a collectible.”
