Bill Russell’s ring from the Naismith Memorial Basketball Hall of Fame is expected to fetch up to $250,000 at auction.
The ring belonging to the late Boston Celtics great is up for auction through SCP Auctions, according to reports, and is being sold along with other items in Russell’s personal collection.
Its design appears to be as grand as Russell’s career.
