Kobe Bryant is now a couple of championship rings short.
Actually, the rings he gifted to his parents—which at one point were part of a lawsuit he filed against his mother—have been sold at auction.
The NBA championship rings that Kobe Bryant gave to his parents each sold for more than $100,000. Goldin Auctions said six items of Bryant memorabilia sold for a combined $433,531 in the monthlong auction that closed early Saturday morning.
A 2000 Lakers championship ring gifted by Bryant to his father, Joe, sold for $174,184. A ring given to his mother, Pamela, from the same championship season went for $108,153. Bryant had filed a suit against the auction company, saying his mother didn’t have the right to sell the items. A settlement was reached last month allowing six items to be auctioned after the five-time NBA champion’s pa-rents apologized to their son and thanked him for his financial support.
The other items included Bryant’s 2000 NBA All-Star game ring, which sold for $55,597, two game-worn uniforms from high school and a medallion and ribbon from the 1996 Magic’s Roundball Classic.
