People either having a hard time pulling them or they aren't selling them one or the other. Maybe both im not sure. They sure are pretty though. I want to get a teal explosion to go with it. I think those are nice looking as well. I don't think they're numbered though.

You’re right about first rookie in NBA uniform and the Teal Explosion being unnumbered. The Teal and Orange Explosion /25 are some of the best looking cards in the set imo. They only came out of retail fat packs and are also hard to find mint. Had a deal on a PSA 10 fall through recently which sucked. Think I’ve seen one PSA 10 for sale in the past 7-10 months. The search continues...

After busting some 19/20 Court Kings and hitting a Zion Level 1, I'm now looking in Luka's direction.

Love the Level 2s but they're not cheap. Sheesh.

Unfortunately nothings cheap anymore. But at least with the 18-19 class theres several good names you can pull. It will be interesting to see where that class ranks in a few more years. Looking real strong right now though. There's so many good young players in the NBA right now.

Zero of the Luka infinite (#/25) autos have been graded. Gotta think there's quite a few sitting in sealed boxes.

They sure are a nice card in hand.
My one is in great condition,but not psa 10 material.....i know the pop is low,but i'm happy that it's at Beckett and hoping fir a couple of 10 subs.

Would you rather have a Raw Luka RC Prizm from eBay (that May and probably has been combed through to know not to grade) or a PSA 9?

Crazy that 9’s have and can go for less then a raw. It seems to be assumed by the new comets that everything will be a 10 but it’s actually pretty difficult to get a 10.

Let me know how it did when you get it back to Australia next year.

Absolutely agree.

This draft reminds me of the depth in the 1996 draft class.

TRUTH. Sweet looking on card auto and Revolution everything is starting to get a lot more love. I’m sure these will only trend upwards mightily.

From some different angles.









Have one of those from the set that I ordered last year and sat on. Sending it and Trae in to get graded (along with the Dr J auto). Interesting thing on Beckett is that Trae is some how 3X the value of Luka...that'll change.

It was Probstein, but a PSA 9 Impact just sold for $472.

Hmm.. now im confused. I see the Premium box set /199 but i also see they had regular silvers /199. How do you tell the difference? They look the same to me. Looks like i bought the premium.

Damn i thought i had a regular silver. I didn't even know they had that box set. Now im kind of disappointed.

Just grabbed the cheapest 2018 Hoops hobby box after my eBay bucks popped, hoping to get a Kevin Huerter non-Premium silver

My own fault for not doing enough research. I guess the premium have more of a rainbow foil to them is the only difference i can see.

Premium






Regular Silver

Look at the NBA Hoops foil. Regular silver should silver and the premium set is gold.

Has this ever happened to you. One of my favorite cards was a pink fastbreak Luka Optic Rated Rookie /20. Yet I would also eyeing my first Prizm Luka RC since I didn’t own one. Since Luka Prizm rookies are skyrocketing I decided to sell my Optic Pink to get a Prizm. Upon receiving the Prizm I was excited but realized after a couple days I actually like the simplicity design of the Optic 2018. I’m not saying I have buyers remorse but maybe I do? Can anyone relate?

I sold a lot of Optic holo PSA 10s before the peak, which makes me a little sad (although paying off credit cards is nice). Never had a pink velocity so swore that after I got debt free, I'd reward myself with a "Miami Vice" gem Doncic.

Got this for a shade over $1300 in early May. I think it's got room to run.

What I really want is a Flawless /20, but that got snatched up before I could pull the trigger. I think his Flawless RCs are going to be big winners down the line.

Hmm yeah maybe, i do see that on some of them where the the Hoops lettering is Silver. That would make the one above graded by PSA wrong then and it's actually a Premium.

Sweet Pink Velocity! I’m not much of a high roller so I was happy to snag a good deal on a blue the other day. I love the aesthetic of the velocity parallels.
