A game-worn jersey belonging to Michael Jordan from his second season at the University of North Carolina sold for a record US $1.38 million.

It is the only known shirt photo-matched to the basketball legend's 1982-83 season with the Tar Heels.

It sold for more than three times the previous record for a Jordan jersey.

From the University of North Carolina, Jordan was taken as the third pick in the 1984 NBA draft.

A Jordan jersey from his third season with the Bulls in 1986-87 last year sold for US $480,000.

Jordan won six NBA championships in the 1990s with the Bulls and established himself as one of the world's most iconic athletes.
