For those wondering what the lucky fan receives by winning the auction, here’s a detailed description provided by Fanatics:
Put your artistic skills to the test when you collaborate with Alex Caruso to create a new “Carushow” T-shirt to be sold online. Following the design session (or you can collaborate during), you, the winner, will attend dinner with Alex in Los Angeles, California. Additionally, you and a lucky guest will also receive tickets to an LA Lakers home game, including post-game passes with access to the private, invite-only Chairman’s room located near the locker room. There, you’ll meet with Alex post-game, take some pictures, and he’ll autograph Caruso jerseys for each of you to keep!
The All In Challenge began on April 14 by Fanatics founder Michael Rubin which challenged celebrities and athletes to participate by auctioning off items and time in order to aid COVID-19 relief.
Other notable Lakers that have taken part are Kyle Kuzma, Lakers head coach Frank Vogel, and Hall of Famer Magic Johnson.
