While the market for game-worn basketball jerseys has surged in recent years, spurred in no small part by the NBA\u2019s partnership with Sotheby\u2019s, collectors have had precious few opportunities to collect gamers from their favorite WNBA stars.<\/p>\n

MeiGray, which has long been a trailblazer in the game-worn space, is holding an auction of game-worn gear from the Las Vegas Ace\u2019s 2025 WNBA Finals, including jerseys, shorts and game balls.<\/p>\n

Surely to be the top lot is A\u2019ja Wilson\u2019s game-worn jersey from Games 1 and 2 of the series<\/a>. Wilson, who would go on to be named the series MVP, wore the same jersey for the entirety of both games \u2014 something which is not a given these days as players have wisened up to the value of their gear and have begun switching jerseys at halftime.<\/p>\n

In Game 1, Wilson had 21 points, 10 rebounds, five assists, two blocks and one steal. In Game 2, Wilson had 28 points, 14 rebounds, three assists and one steal. She led the Aces to victory over the Phoenix Mercury in both games. Bidding runs until Nov. 20.<\/p>\n

Other lots in the auction include jerseys worn by Jackie Young, Kierstan Bell, Dana Evans and Kiah Stokes.<\/p>\n

The Aces signed an exclusive deal for their game-worn product with MeiGray earlier this year. MeiGray has also inked deals with the Golden State Valkyries, in addition to its longtime partners in the NHL and NBA.<\/p>\n
