When the pandemic first started back in March, many people were looking for some entertainment. Luckily for all of us, that gap in sports coverage was filled by ESPN as they accelerated the production of "The Last Dance," which was a 10-part docuseries about Michael Jordan and his career with the Chicago Bulls. Following the airing of the documentary, fans began clamoring for new pairs of Air Jordans and even began hunting down some vintage memorabilia. Since then, numerous items have gone up for auction and have sold for hundreds of thousands of dollars.
