Whenever there’s a list of the greatest sports teams of all time, there are often lots of squads thrown into the discussion, but there also seems to be one constant. The United States men’s Olympic basketball team at the 1992 Summer Olympics, also known as the Dream Team, is on seemingly everyone’s shortlist for being among the greatest ever. They dominated the competition in Barcelona en route to winning a gold medal, and now one of those 12 gold medals handed out to the 12 players is available for auction.
Clyde Drexler put his Olympic gold medal up for auction earlier this week and has partnered with Goldin Auctions to facilitate the sale. Bidding for the medal—which has been authenticated by Drexler—starts at $250,000, with final bids currently set to end on Aug. 17. Goldin says this is the first Dream Team gold medal to ever hit an auction.
