No, this isn't to cover MJ's losses in Atlantic City following his famous Eastern Conference Finals escapades, but it's the next best thing!
Jordan was a well-known gambler during his career, though he insists he only bet on himself in individual battles throughout his time in the NBA. Regardless, it's a well-known slice of his legacy, and this is a neat collector's item, if you've got the stones and the cash flow.

How much you wanna bet MJ himself hops in the bidding? Double or nothing? Triple? I like those odds.
