The surprise isn’t that LeBron James’ jersey is the number one selling jersey this year. He switched teams AND numbers of course his jersey sales would surge. I expect to see Carmelo to move up in sales next year (not number 1 but a push for sure.)
What’s pretty amazing is Rajon Rondo holds the number 3 spot. Not Derrick Rose, Not DWade or Amar’e. The climate of the NBA is changing. I think it’s great for the game.
