This podcast is the sister to the 1.14 Happy Hobby Sports Cards Newsletter! Each podcast has several subjects, like a pack of cards, with one big hit to start it off!
With the 2024 NBA Draft officially behind us, allowing us to start dreaming of the new rookies in their new rookie jerseys on their new rookie cards, we thought we’d look back at basketball card history. We tracked down nine great rookie basketball cards that we never got to see! In some cases, we saw their rookie cards in later years, but in the case of many of these players, they were more like third-year cards than rookie cards!
While we list nine, 🏀we actually discuss another 13 rookie basketball cards🏀 everyone also missed out on, for various reasons.

🏀5 AWESOME EBAY STATS!🏀
Our friends at eBay shared some pretty great news about their vaulting services and their partnership with PSA, but even more importantly, they tell us who the five most bought/sold NBA players were during the 2023-24 NBA season! Can you guess who they were!?!
