What's Buzz-worthy: Back to reality with this one after a Green Wembanyama last time ... though my run of base stars isn't bad and the one -- only one?!?! -- Rookie Card was a name I'd want to find (school ties) and a guy that figures to be in demand on rarer versions with this one one of the better RCs but probably a victim of plenty made. This one is still reloading at retail and it's still worth it with key rookies and colors only found here. It's a no-brainer of you're a basketball fan and worth the look if you rip and flip, too, though not every box will be big in this format. ... As I noted last time, these boxes are small so the RCs -- face it, they're why we're ripping -- can be hit and miss -- my third box still to come had several. ... Among the parallels here are the three you see here along with Glitter, Red Seismic, Blue Seismic and Green Pulsar -- the last three on the numbered side -- for all 300 base cards. Do the quick math and it's not easy to land the exclusives here so that should add some early value, though plenty is getting ripped.

Product Grade: A
Box Grade:
A- (some good base veterans, a good rookie ... it can be topped this definitely could have been worse)
Fun Grade: B+ (small boxes can be very hit and miss)
