Nice! Bought a mojo gem myself back in July. This and my courtside silver psa 10 are my best 2 of Sexton. Have a lot of nice stuff - now trying to figure out whether to sell, or continue holding.

I didn't get into basketball until December of last year (thanks to Zion), and never really paid attention to Sexton. Then stumbled upon his ESPN page in late June, and couldn't believe the numbers he put up late last year.

In 5 March games, he averaged 30 ppg on 58%/38%/85%

In 11 February games he averaged 22 ppg on 47%/48%/82%

He's not going to fill up the stat sheet with assists and rebounds, but his efficiency is pretty incredible. He was one of the most obvious buys I've ever seen.

Picked this up in the middle of his rookie year for like $14-15.. I’ve got a decent amount of other Sexton cards but mostly base/lower end parallels.

Absolutely love the red parallel uniform/jersey relic match.

I thought his stuff was severely under valued. So I snatched this up last summer.

Undervalued but trending way up. A tie-dye courtside sold for $1100 PSA 10. Wow

either discord groups pumping him or people catching up on box scores, I'm getting a lot of (crap) offers on the last couple cards I have of him. it amazes me what a couple nice games do for any relatively young player these days. I see the NT horizontal I sold for $525 just a month or two ago got hit for $1500? that kind of money for a horizontal of a non-all star is absolutely bonkers. I mean, I like(d) him and had a huge inventory, but he's still tiny and still plays in Cleveland, right?

also want to take the time to say, if you're one of the people pointing at comps from more than a week or two ago and trying to convince me to sell at that price point, you either don't know how pricing trends work, or think I'm stupid. either way, it's not convincing me to accept your offer. this goes for Sexton, Morant, literally any hot player. it's super annoying.

This kid has been playing great. He deserves more credit.

Sexton
Ayton
Porter JR
JJJ
Bagely

His prices should start reflecting his standing as your starting to see now.

Agree.

One of the things that I like most about Sexton is how efficient he is. He's shot over 50% from the field in 5 of 6 games. 55% on the year - unheard of for a G who scores 20+ ppg.

I would throw SGA on that list somewhere too, but I definitely agree that Sexton has earned his ranking.

That’s all fine and dandy, but there are a few posters here on blowout that are professional Cleveland Cavaliers knower abouters, that are expert in nba analysis, that say Sexton is garbage. Nothing more than a volume shooter, without any other valuable contributions to the game. And they either go to, or watch every game. So your opinion is null and void. Sorry my man.

Kid is a stud and only getting better...been watching him since college. He’s developing the mentality that he wants the ball in the clutch. That’s what you saw last night. Last night was a GREAT win.

Some of the stuff I read over the last few months (from posters here)....

Many had him pegged as basically the worst defender in the NBA...which he is far, far from. He's not great defensively, but he battles.

And as a scorer, as I've said numerous times - he's so efficient. If anything, I think he's TOO passive. There is no excuse for him only taking 18 shots while guys like Cedi get 12, Javale is bombing up all kinds of complete garbage, Exum, etc. I'd argue Sexton needs to be more selfish.

He's also a great teammate. Watch him throughout the game, and he's never berating his guys, always upbeat, etc. Give me Sexton on my team every freaking day.
