Michael Jordan Game Ticket Stubs: What Are They Worth?

The GOAT's Game Stubs

Michael Jordan game ticket stubs are the most sought-after basketball collectibles in the world. From his rookie season in 1984 through his final game with the Washington Wizards in 2003, every game Jordan played produced a ticket stub that now carries collector interest. But certain Jordan stubs stand far above the rest in value.

The Most Valuable Jordan Stubs

Jordan's "Flu Game" (1997 NBA Finals Game 5) is one of the most valuable basketball stubs. Jordan played through illness to score 38 points and lead the Bulls to a crucial win over the Jazz. The narrative power of this game — Jordan's determination against physical adversity — makes its stubs iconic.

His 63-point playoff game against the Celtics in 1986 (a record that still stands for a playoff game), his final game at the old Chicago Stadium, his 1998 Finals "Last Shot" game, and his NBA debut in 1984 all produce stubs that command significant premiums.

Era and Context Matter

Jordan's first threepeat (1991-1993) and second threepeat (1996-1998) stubs are the most valuable regular-era stubs. His Washington Wizards years (2001-2003) produce stubs with a different kind of appeal — the twilight of a legend. Any playoff or Finals stub from Jordan's career carries a baseline premium simply because of who was on the court.
