Jersey sales: LeBron James and the Lakers still dominate

With the playoffs just underway, the NBA is doing its usual review of the players and teams that are selling the most jerseys. This is the second of the season, after the one done last January. And as three months ago, we see that LeBron James and the Lakers are still at the top of this ranking, despite their results.

Behind them, we also notice that they are no longer followed by Stephen Curry and the Warriors, who close the podium, but by James Harden and the Sixers, who took advantage of the transfer with Brooklyn to break through in a few weeks. Same thing for Joel Embiid, 6th in the players’ category, behind Kevin Durant and Jayson Tatum, still well placed like the Nets and Celtics.

On the other hand, Giannis Antetokounmpo and the Bucks have fallen in the rankings, leaving the Top 5 and now appearing at 7th place. On the team side, the Suns and Grizzlies are now in the Top 10 at the expense of the Raptors and Mavericks, while the Bulls have moved up to 4th and the Knicks have dropped three spots.

Among the players, the “returnee” Kyrie Irving is now at the 10th place, behind Luka Doncic and Ja Morant who have fallen a little. Same for Trae Young and Klay Thompson, ejected from the Top 10, just like Damian Lillard. The rest of the Top 15 is completed by Devin Booker and LaMelo Ball, as well as Nikola Jokic, an MVP who is definitely struggling to establish himself among the best sellers of jerseys.
