2024-25 Haunted Hoops

[Giantrobot]

Bought a box(?) today at Wally World, and noticed the cards are now glossy AND they snuck in 20 XRCs of 2025 draft picks. No Cooper, but Edgecombe, Tre Johnson, Yang were a few notable names. Pretty fun rip for $23. Pulled a #/99 Risacher RC in mine, and there are also #/31 cards.

I ordered one an hour ago. There are about 10 draft picks I wouldn’t mind hitting.

Kinda funny how nobody here cares about this fun, inexpensive set. These are neat-looking cards, and it’s a completely unique set, not just another rehash like Topps holiday sets. Guess it doesn’t cost enough, or require you to automatically throw away your money to get nothing in return, like most modern releases.

If anyone opened this and feels like looking, I need some base to finish off a set. I can send the list if anyone has any!

I took a look at it, because it is that rare set with a Nesmith. But when it turned out the lowest numbered parallel was /31 I lost interest. Kind of like how the lowest numbered parallel in Prizm China is /18. What's the actual point?

I grabbed some last year and probably will this year but Hoops on its own is usually ignored what would you expect for a niche holiday-version? Products like Hoops or Score in football being cheap doesn’t automatically make them fun rips….its the oddball products that provide fun and potential value like those Hoops Premium mega boxes or Totally Certified boxes

This is an oddball product, not those.

Did anyone else open this that would move some base? Looking to finish off the set.

I’ve opened a few more…finally pulled a #/31 Sky of Anthony Davis, so that was pretty decent.
