For the first time ever, LeBron James, Stephen Curry, and Kevin Durant played together at the Paris Olympics. This was a moment fans will cherish forever, much like the 1992 Dream Team with Michael Jordan, Magic Johnson, and Larry Bird.
Fans now have a chance to own a special piece of this memory. James, Curry, and Durant are set to sign a unique Topps trading card featuring them in their Team USA uniforms. This rare autographed card will be given randomly to someone who buys their base card from Topps for $11.99.
“This card pays tribute to the incredible moment that we saw during the Olympics where three of the greatest active basketball players combined to take home the gold medal,” said Clay Luraschi from Topps. “This particular card is special because you have your regular version and then you have an autograph version. There’s been many different autograph cards throughout basketball trading card history, but this is the first time these three players have signed the same card. So, it makes it very unique.”
Memorabilia Value:
Ken Goldin from Goldin Auctions believes this autographed card could be worth “easily six figures” at an auction. In recent years, cards featuring legends like Jordan and Kobe Bryant have sold for over seven figures. For example, last December a Topps Bryant rookie card sold for two million dollars!
During their time in Paris , James, Curry, and Durant talked about how honored they felt representing their country as teammates. They even recreated an iconic photo of Jordan’s Dream Team trio.
Fans might think it’s amazing that they can get such a rare item just by buying a base card.
The chemistry between these three stars helped Team USA overcome tough challenges from Serbia and France in critical games. Now one lucky fan will get to keep this memory alive with a special autographed card.
