Let’s say he wins MVP, make the Finals and lose to GSW. Or just sock it away and forget about it?

I would just put it away and forget about it.

Kid has a chance to 4x ro 5x his money....

That's never a bad time to take profit.


Even it it jumps to 6k or 7k, he still made a hell of a profit.

I would not be selling a PSA 10 silver unless you have doubts about his career arc.

[packfan15412]

At this point you hold... He's going to already win the MVP and if his team makes the finals there's only room for it to go up!

[COMCMax]

At first glance I thought it was black prizm 1/1. Stuck in my brain from yesterday. I'm sure these guys will fill ya in. I'd take the advice from live board not PMs lol

[COMCMax]

I would say hold especially since it's PSA

Can we get a heads on you're next gut feeling lol

I prolly would have chosen Victor Oladipo. Poor.guy. Just read this other day..

I’m going to be the best in the league,” Oladipo emphatically tells the camera after some shooting drills. “Watch what I’m saying. I’m not playing no games, man.”

He then points to his leg and calls it “a blessing” as he walks out the door.

[daeve]

Kinda shocked the high on a quad BGS 9.5 Select Silver is still just $650. A PSA Gem hit $950 but still feels like there's a lot of room on these. Someone is sitting on 5 BGS Quad or betters with $800 BIN/BO and I think once those start to go will be the next indicator of upward movement on Giannis.

[COMCMax]

I was thinking imangine if Oladipo came back with a vengeance. It would give that one more player wax needs.What did his Silvers peak when he got hot? One just sold dirt cheap.

[COMCMax]

Peaked. Yea, he's ways off from the freak. I thought he got higher.

PSA 10 base card broke the $600 barrier. Should be base in 1/3 boxes with 297 card base set. Six cards a pack. Twenty packs per box.120 cards a box. Figure in a few inserts/autographs. So a little better than 1/3.

You guys with wax are sitting pretty.

Doesn't work that way, RC's are 1 per most packs (probably 12-15+ packs out of 20); there's 37 RC's so your odds are about the same 1:2-3 boxes, just don't want to spread misinformation about how to pull them. Don't know if its ever possible to get 2 Giannis base RC's in 1 box, maybe if you hit the exact perfect end/beginning of a run.

[packman80]

So how much will the media hype up Giannis next year will he stay in MKE will he go to team A B or C?

I think it's a lock the media will play it up to get clicks and viewers on tv but in truth I see the odd's of Giannis leaving MKE at this point to be slim to none with slim calling a uber to leave town.

I think I figured it out. *edit

Post. 1925.

[COMCMax]

double post ...

[Pathora]

I wonder if Giannis had the crappy paper RC card on the outside of those Prizm packs what they'd go for? I don't even want to know how many of those I would've had opening a case plus of it. Card of Oladipo is shown below and those are scraps. My guess is $5-10 dollars raw.

I think we were saying the same thing ,but boxes had less rookies because of the number of lopsided rookies vs vets in the set.

260 veterans and 37 rookies.You should get less rookies per box. You should have the same odds to pull any individual player though. If not then rookies would have to be shortprinted. If you saw more rookies than vets something would be off.
