Autographs/Memorabilia: None

What's Buzz-worthy: Can't stop, won't stop ... and the results of this one show why. Ja Morant, Zion Williamson, Coby White and more all make appearances here and the inserts (this time) included some notable veterans and a Giannis that has extra appeal as a Silver Optichome parallel card. In other releases, that pays for a box or two but I'll admit this one I don't know -- been too busy ripping these boxes to watch the sales closely. Once I get to the end of my stash, I'll sort it all out and see how things look on that end. For me, ripping into these is just for fun with all of the variety. For more thoughts on this one, check out my other breaks.

Product Grade: A
Box Grade:
 A+ (five Morant/Williamson appearances and more solid finds)
Fun Grade: A
