Great wealth or luxuriousness, that is the definition of opulence. There is no doubting the pedigree of 2018-19 Panini Opulence Basketball when it is full of high-end cards, on-card autographs, low print run sets and NBA Finals Booklets. These are just some of the main selling points for the release, which returns for its sophomore year.
Each box is limited to a single pack featuring 7 Autograph or Memorabilia cards. All autos are on-card and numbered to 99 or less, with the main hits being the impressive booklets. For the rookies the booklets feature rookie patch autos, nameplate logo autos, team logo autos, brand logo autos and sponsor logo autos, whilst the highly sought after NBA Finals patches and logo return again. Whilst the NBA Finals logo is definitely one of the most sought after in the product, the limited print run Octo Rookie Auto Booklet is definitely going to be a long term investment noting the calibre of the 2018 NBA Rookie class. The card will feature autographs from Luke Doncic, Trae Young, DeAndre Ayton, Kevin Knox, Jaren Jackson Jr, Marvin Bagley Jr, Colin Sexton and Wendell Carter as shown in the preview image below.
The quality hits don’t just stop at the booklets and their are an array of veteran and HOF singers in this release. The likes of Charles Barkley, Shaquille O’Neal, Kobe Bryant, Giannis Antetokounmpo and Kevin Durant are all shown in the sell sheet and will undoubtably feature in the final release. The Team USA cards are always a favourite regardless of which set the feature in but this year will see Team USA jersey autos for the first time in some years.
Whilst not a cheap product, there is plenty to like about 2018-19 Panini Opulence Basketball and there is no doubt it will be a highly sought after product.
