The St. Vincent-St. Mary High School jersey LeBron James wore on his first Sports Illustrated cover was auctioned off for $187,500 on Saturday night, according to Action Network's Darren Rovell.

The auction set a new record for the highest price ever paid for one of James' jerseys, though it fell short of the $300,000 price tag Goldin Auctions founder Ken Goldin was expecting.

The jersey was worn by a then-17-year-old James for his 2002 cover shoot with Sports Illustrated and for the majority of his junior season, according to Goldin Auctions.
