The first No. 24 jersey worn by Kobe Bryant with the Los Angeles Lakers recently sold for $889,000, including buyer's premium, at Sotheby's.

A jersey used by Jerry West from 1964 to 1967 also sold for $533,400 on the same night.

Bryant wore the jersey while posting 23 points in a 118-112 victory against the Seattle Supersonics on Nov. 3, 2006. He would score 50 points or more in a game on 10 occasions in that 2006-07 season en route to his second straight -- and final -- league scoring title.

The jersey is signed by him with the inscriptions "FIRST 24" and "1/1" on the jersey's numbers, including an Upper Deck hologram, as the company had an autograph and memorabilia deal with Bryant until 2009.
