Basketball Hall of Famer Kareem Abdul-Jabbar scored a lot of points in his 20-year NBA career. An NBA record 38,387 to be exact, but who’s counting. Abdul-Jabbar’s final regular season game took place on April 23, 1989. He scored 10 points against the Seattle Supersonics in a 121-117 Lakers victory.

Those would be the final points scored in Abdul-Jabbar’s illustrious career (excluding playoffs), and with that history in mind, he signed the game ball and inscribed with “Last Reg Season 4/89” along with his final career point total. For 33 years that game ball has been in and out of the hands of some of the most infamous memorabilia collectors, but now it’s going back up for auction, and it’s expected to sell for a lot of money.

The last time the ball went to auction it sold for over $270,000. This time around it’s expected to fetch over half a million.

The ball is just one of many items that will be for sale at the MINT25 Auction, an exclusive and unprecedented collection of 25 of the greatest and most iconic artifacts in sports history. Originally scheduled for an online run from January 28-30, the auction, conducted by Lelands will now take place March 25-27 in Las Vegas.

Among the many items being offered are a 2010 Tom Brady New England Patriots game-worn jersey, an autographed rookie card, Babe Ruth’s 1918 bat contact with Hillerich & Bradsby, and Michael Jordan’s game-worn Chicago Bulls jersey from 1988.
