Had to grab one Luka. Hoping he can finally land an MVP this year and the Mavs can make a nice run.

Nice card! Status cards are tough to grade.

two aesthetic issues with the Status card imaged above:
1. dunking isn't what particularly distinguishes Luka's game
2. the background design has no rhyme or reason to it, why not just do Kandinsky-style backgrounds on stuff. But at least it isn't noisy or off-putting in some way. The lined portion in gold in the upper left has a nice look in the abstract, but from the rhyme-or-reason standpoint, swirls or smears might have a nice look too.

True! But he does dunk on occasion, and it also looks 100x better than him just standing there or dribbling imo.

Also for sure I can see that with the background. I feel like a lot of base sets don’t always have a rhyme or reason to the design as it’s more about the aesthetics really. If it were an insert I’d feel much different as there’s usually a “theme”.

And very often inserts have the loudest designs

not sure if its been mentioned, the Mavericks To Sign Derrick Jones Jr.

A great vet. min. signing that should bring athleticism and length to the 10-15 roster spot.

Great card, I love Obsidian, some of the best looking cards and low key under the radar.

I noticed PSA didn’t grade too many of these (6 pop), so that caught my eye. I love picking up early autos of my favorite players.
