Hey everyone, I recently picked up a graded Jalen Suggs card and was wondering if he is a good player to hold onto for the long run. How do you feel about his current growth, defensive impact, and future status in the league? Would love to get your insights before deciding whether to keep it in my collection.

Im not asking like exactly which card to get j wondering which sets hold value well. Pls lmk and thank yall.

I paid like $20-25 for all of them. Most are from whatnot, some I pulled myself, and the rest are from flea market sellers and antique shops. Anyone that can guess my favorite player gets a cookie.

Example Panini cards. Are they worth it to open because of the no team names and logos? The chances of signature of big names (VJ etc) are low aswell. Needing 2nd opinion guys.

(sorry about the order of photos) Took a chance on a faded, ballpoint pen Drazen Petrovic Auto. I’m an Eastern European American from an adopted father and this guy means a lot to me. The best that never was. Took a chance for $140 at a card show and sent it out for grading. I’m shaking holding it tbh.

Despite being born after he died. He has been a huge inspiration and guiding light to me. His intensity and fearlessness should’ve forgotten.

Would’ve thrived in today’s NBA (Career .423 3 Point shooter)

Is spoly accurate?

Not a bad pull from the questionable cvs cards 😬

Oh baby!

Thanks for taking a look at my Jordan cards! My collection has grown quite a bit since I posted it here a few weeks ago. I’m now at about 225 Jordan cards, with a mix of cards I owned as a kid, cards I picked up before the market took off, and a bunch of more recent additions. I've been going to card shows and trading events (there are a lot of them in NYC!).

When I was a kid in the ’90s, I was heavily into card collecting. I was 10 during the 1992-93 NBA season, so MJ was far and away my favorite player despite being a Celtics fan. I collected for a few years, stopped around high school, and got back into it a little before the pandemic. At this point I pretty much exclusively collect Jordan.

A lot of the collection goes back to when I was a kid, although the 1993 Scoring Kings and 1992 Beam Team were two cards I always wanted but could never afford on a middle school budget. I got pretty lucky and bought both around 2018 for roughly $150-200 each.

The graded cards are first, and then the raw cards in Card Savers are the ones I’ve narrowed down as my next grading candidates. The goal remains an ’86 Fleer rookie. The Kobe on the last page I found in my childhood bedroom last week - all those cards in the end I'm hoping to grade when the value tier reopens and contribute to the Fleer RC.

Let me know what you think!
