It turns out fans are eager to get their hands on Lebron James' new Philadelphia 76ers jersey. "More LeBron 76ers merchandise was sold in the first 24 hours after his decision was announced than was sold in the first week after his announcement to join the Lakers in 2018. Since Friday, LeBron James merchandise has accounted for eight of the top 10 selling products across all sports throughout the Fanatics network of sites." When Ohtani set the record for fastest-selling jersey, MLB noted he surpassed previous marks held by Lionel Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo. The combination of switching teams and enthusiasm around the 76ers, who are one of the NBA's marquee franchises, going into next season clearly seems have sparked a historic level of interest in James merchandise.
