Cultural relevance
These are some of the biggest young players in the NBA today, and many will be household names. They’re no Lebrons or MJs, but one or two may reach that status.
The NBA (blue) still lags behind the NFL (red) in terms of both popularity and revenue in the US, but it far surpasses both baseball (yellow) and hockey (green). It’s also been gaining ground on the NFL while baseball and hockey have lagged behind.
Valuation
All these cards are widely traded, so inferred value is just a sum of parts exercise. Based on most recent auction prices, the cards are worth between $25k and $35k.
