Even though fans were disappointed Caitlin Clark only played 13 games before ending her sophomore season in the WNBA due to a right groin injury, enthusiasm for her cards among collectors has not diminished. During a Goldin Auctions event on Sept. 13, Clark scored big for one lucky seller, netting $341,600 after 25 bids with a buyer’s premium. As part of their 2024-25 Instant Rookie Royalty WNBA Kaboom Line, Panini released three variants on their Clark cards: (base) Kaboom #1, Kaboom Gold #1, and Kaboom Green #1. The scarcity of Gold holds true here, just 10 printed. But Panini produced an all-time grail card with just one manufactured in Green… a beautiful BGS 10 Pristine.…

Among modern era players, there is no one that attracts a crowd in the hobby, regardless of the sport, like Michael Jordan. There are few iconic rookie cards outside the vintage timeline chased by all, but nothing comes close to “His Airness” 1986-87 Fleer #57. While there is no shortage of Jordan cards on the market, there are some that have seemingly been forgotten or have never been seen like the 1996-97 Upper Deck International Japanese Jordan Greater Heights line. Beyond being a six-time NBA champion, six-time NBA Finals MVP, and five-time NBA Most Valuable Player, Jordan is so great he defies Junk Wax Era obstacles. There are 5,044 cards from 1994-95 to 1999-00 alone featuring MJ but that has not diminished his value on the secondary market. Scrolling down…

A star in the NBA from the moment he stepped foot on the court in 2018, the league, opposing teams, the Lakers organization, fans, and collectors alike are all hyped and/or curious about the new and improved Luka Dončić for the 2025-26 season. Singularly focused on proving his greatness to doubters, Dončić’s pairing with LeBron James for a full season is a win-win for everyone. From an individual perspective, beginning his eighth year in the association, there’s not much else for Dončić to accomplish. After being picked third overall in the 2018 draft by the Atlanta Hawks, Dončić was traded for the rights to Trae Young and a future first round pick. Once in Dallas, Dončić flexed his Slovenian flare for the game earning Rookie of the Year honors. Improvements…

Looking over Milwaukee Bucks statistics, just about every meaningful milestone is occupied by Giannis Antetokounmpo. Drilling down on all-time points scored within the franchise, a name pops up in a flash from the past – Michael Redd. Redd was as talented as any on the offensive end, but just as things got going it all came to a repeated ACL/MCL end. Even in Ohio State circles, Redd is not among the most prominent names on the court; Big Ten Freshman of the Year (1998) and first-team All-Big Ten (2000) with one Final Four appearance (1999). But once in the NBA, Redd’s development took big strides capturing the game’s attention for a brief period. The best fortune tellers couldn’t have predicted what was to come for Redd. An afterthought drafted in…
