Exclusive Details

Kobe Bryant fans, here’s your chance to come face-to-face with the Mamba himself (kinda) … ’cause the NBA legend’s game-worn protective face mask just hit the auction block!!

During the 2012 All-Star game, Dwyane Wade fouled Kobe hard, and broke his nose … forcing K.B. to wear the clear face mask to protect his schnoz.

Goldin Auctions got ahold of the mask — which comes with a letter from a member of the Lakers training staff — that Mamba used during games in February and March of ’12.

The mask hits the block Monday … and bidding closes on October 29th.

Interested? Break out your checkbook … ’cause it ain’t gonna go cheap. The auction house tells us they expect the mask to sell for over $50k!! 

Good luck!
