Hey I'm ok with having a few autos of his mom as well, they look great.

Just 9 hours to Luka time!

Also—I was fortunate to pull a flawless patch auto, but the NON-Auto patches could be a sneaky good buy. Remember—these are the only rookie game-used patches he will have, many were selling under 1k recently. I really like the flawless non-patch auto, where he’s shooting the ball one handed, kind of floating through the air, but I think the ship has sailed on lower prices for those, as I think one is already over $3k on eBay.

As for lower end, the Certified stuff looks great to me. The rookie roll call auto is affordable, and his base card and base parallels are also nice looking, it’s also a condition sensitive set. The auto on the rookie roll call looks “real” to me..

Lastly, you can’t go wrong with any prizm parallel, the image is/will be an iconic one. The greens can still be had for under $300.

Just my humble opinion, please post what you end up getting, happy hunting!—Matt

Thanks for all these tips, Matt. What do you think about Immaculate Moments? Those are still in queue and they’re only around $700. I can imagine a price increase when they’ll be live.

Don’t tell anyone this, but I think people who sold off his chronicles origins auto/99 are really going to regret it one day. Clean auto, on-card, great design and really tough to pull. One of the best secrets out there, but don’t spread the word cause we don’t want the prices to explode, yet.

I have one, picture is one of the worst they could’ve used. Don’t love the card, but keep hyping.

I like the moments cards, and I'm sure they will use a cool photo for it. We all KNOW he will be signing those, so it's a safe bet. Easily a $1200 card when live. Only worry would be a "bubbly" auto on the acetate, but panini has done better with that recently.

I regret not pulling the trigger on a few of the contenders optic blue redemptions: were selling for $5-600, now over 3k!

Do all of the Optic Pink Hypers have the dark Refractor lines in them or do they hurt the value? I bought one that has them but I didn't see them in the sale pics. Now I'm not sure if I overpaid, everything looks great except the 2 lines

only 17 of 80 have received 10s, so if you're looking at grading, then yeah it might hurt. straight hold & resell later, probably not since they all have them

Good to know, I wasn't buying to grade. I was just hoping it wasn't seen as a major flaw

Imagine how good the Mavs would be if they had AD instead of KP.

He would average 15 assists minimum

His stats would drop because he would be sitting on the bench 3 mins into third quarter due to blowout victories.

Lakers applying the trap early on Luka

[RogerGodahell]

Time for luka to attack the rim and draw some fouls with defenders trying to be too aggressive. Get them in foul trouble and they'll back off.

[KhalDrogo]

Slow start.

[ThoseBackPages]

all exposure, is good exposure

[RogerGodahell]

That ain't good THJ looks like he pulled a hammy

Avery Bradley is a good defender. Maybe have Brunson bring the ball up and have Luka work off the ball for a bit.

[Rememberthepast]

I wonder if there's been a shake up within the Atlanta Hawks scouting/evaluating department?
