Giannis rookie cards drop 10, 20% or 30% after Bucks win the title?

Pretty sure they go up that's what was needed there is/was no championship baked into his cards at this point.

After the initial euphoria push, I'm going to be on the lookout for this.

They go up $9.99

I agree.... And even if the bump is slight, it raises the floor and ceiling dramatically going forward.

Voters weren’t gonna let him win another mvp any time soon with that playoff monkey on his back...he closes this out then a 3rd mvp in the next few seasons becomes a real possibility.

The Bucks were never favored to win the title until now, which is why Giannis may hold value. I don't see a huge bump at all, but if they can pull it off, I think Prizm 10s hold steady at $2k. Rarer stuff, look out.

Agree, Phoenix finished their conference finals much earlier and Giannis was injured at that point. Now that Milwaukee has taken home-court advantage, it's the first time these playoffs that they are the clear favorite to win it.

The thing with Giannis is, pretty much all his stuff outside of base cards is rare. The most common non base card I can think of is the Blue Crusade and there might be less than 3000 copies of that one.

As a lifelong Bucks fan and a day one Giannis supporter, I can't help but feel like a complete IDIOT for not buying a Giannis RPA before now. The ship may have sailed!

That is a head scratcher since you have been with him since the beginning. I mean in 2013 it couldn’t have cost over a $1000.

for the longest time Gold Standard Jersey Auto RCs were $250-400... 9.5s and PSA 10s

not a patch...but only full name on card jersey/auto

Someone was selling the Immac 1/1 Logoman RPA on here back then for like $1200 IIRC.

I feel your pain! I was on a limited budget and the best RC I was able to pick up was the NT international RC auto /60.

I moved my 9.5 for 200 a few years ago. Got it in a trade where its value was around 70-80 bucks.

Not a bad pickup! I was also low on budget and basketball cards were not my priority. Thinking about pulling the trigger on a Gold Standard Jersey auto now.

No way… I didn’t need to know that. I, unfortunately, didn’t get into basketball cards until a few years ago. Even though I’ve always watched, I only collected football. Hindsight is 20/20.

I thought "G. Antetokounmpo" vs. "GA" would command a more significant premium by now, but it doesn't appear so. Personally, I'd much rather have an RPA where he signed his full name compared to one where he just wrote his initials.

Not only that, but the spelled out version is his Nigerian alphabet signature.

Really neat.

Hopefully not the one from BuyNiceCards?

No, it wasn’t bought from him. I bought a raw copy, then graded with BGS at a show…BGS 9.

[YourAvgSutton]

Alright, I've got literal butterflies in my stomach guys. Anyone else going to the game / Deer District tonight?

[WiscoSports]

Heading to the game! Need to close it out tonight.
