The above 100-year-old, super rare, game-worn jersey worn by basketball Hall of Famer Joe Lapchick is up for auction and expected to go for a quarter of a million dollars...

The threads belonged to Basketball Hall of Famer Joe Lapchick ... a star on the New York Original Celtics in the 1920s (no relation to the Boston Celtics, who didn't even exist until 1946).
Lapchick -- a 6'5" big man known for his athleticism and agility -- is regarded as one of the best centers of his generation.
In 1923, JL joined the famed Original Celtics -- the 2nd incarnation of the New York Celtics -- who were disbanded during World War 1.
Lapchick's Celtics barnstormed around the country -- beating up on local teams -- until 1926 ... when they joined the American Basketball League (ABL) and won 2 straight titles.
