A jersey worn by Kobe Bryant in his rookie season, including two playoff games, will be sold at auction. The jersey from the 1996-97 season could fetch between USD3million (approx Rs 22.95 crore) and USD5million (approx Rs 38.26 core) in an online auction that begins May 18, David Kohler of SCP Auctions said Saturday.

"We feel this could bring a record for any basketball jersey," he said.

Kohler said the seller, who wants to remain anonymous, has had the jersey for 25 years. The seller approached Kohler after seeing another of Bryant's rookie jerseys went for USD 3.69million last year.
