Published March 4, 2026
The records keep tumbling for Kon Knueppel.
The Charlotte Hornets sharpshooter’s extraordinary rookie season continued last week with yet another milestone, as he became the fastest player in NBA history to reach 200 career three-pointers after just 58 games.
Knueppel’s game-worn jersey from the night he made history against the Chicago Bulls set a new MWS auction record for an NBA jersey of €40,767.

The No.4 overall pick in the 2025 NBA draft took the league record previously held by Duncan Robinson, scoring 21 points as the Hornets earned their eighth straight road victory.
The former Duke Blue Devil’s explosive debut season in Charlotte has prompted huge excitement in collector circles, with the jersey from his 1,000th NBA point now in the hands of a fan via an MWS auction from February.
