Christian Laettner, a former NCAA champion and member of the famed Olympic "Dream Team," is collaborating again with SCP Auctions, offering over 36 items from his collection for their Fall Premier Auction, which concludes on Dec. 2.

The collection features Laettner's NCAA championship rings from 1991 and 1992, a 1987 recruitment letter from Coach Mike Krzyzewski, and his #32 Duke jersey, retired during his senior season in 1992 at Cameron Indoor Stadium. Additionally, Laettner's involvement in the 1992 Barcelona Olympics is highlighted through his game-worn, autographed uniform and warm-up suit, a team-signed basketball, and an autographed ticket from the gold medal final – the highest PSA graded example.

Other notable items include his ring from the 2010 Naismith Hall of Fame induction and his 2010 National Collegiate Basketball Hall of Fame Induction Medal, along with a 1997 NBA All-Star ring and a game-worn jersey from his rookie year in the NBA.

Laettner expressed that these items hold great sentimental value, recalling his basketball career's highlights. He sees this auction as an opportunity for collectors and fans to own a piece of his storied career. This auction follows the 2014 sale of Laettner's jersey, worn during his famous turnaround jumper against Kentucky in the 1992 NCAA Tournament, which was auctioned for $119,500.
