WASHINGTON - Kobe Bryant's items including two NBA championship rings were auctioned.
The rings that Bryant gave to his parents each sold for more than 100,000 U.S. dollars while the six items of Bryant memorabilia sold for a combined 433,531 dollars in the monthlong auction that closed Saturday, Golldin Auctions said.
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 parents apologized to their son.
As part of the sale, Goldin Auctions is donating 62,565 dollars to The Bully Project, a Bryant-supported charity.
