Posted Jan 14, 2014
The jersey Christian Laettner wore when he hit arguably the most iconic shot in college basketball history sold for $119,500 at a recent Lelands.com auction. Laettner's white No. 32 Blue Devils jersey, the same one he wore when he hit a fadeaway buzzer-beater to upend Kentucky, 104-103, in a 1992 regional final, went up for auction in late December with an asking price of $100,000.
