The resurgence of WNBA cards in pack form during the Panini America years is one that includes plenty to collect -- and all it takes at the current Black Friday prices is one key card to come out way ahead.

There are more autographs and rarities for the league's top superstars and legends of the past than perhaps ever before with all of the flash and dash on the court meeting the likes of Prizm, which commands top dollar for rarities unlike ever before, while that same kind of flash is also found as Optic inserts in the Donruss boxes above and then there's the intergalactic feel of Revolution ... and that's not even all of the options in the sale.

But a late-breaking development from Blowout HQ has perhaps the biggest WNBA deal of 'em all coming up later today.

How big? The 10-box cases of 2023 Panini Origins WNBA (regularly $1,250 a pop) will drop for a cool price -- hit the link -- as an extra-big option for WNBA fans on this shopping day of all shopping days.

Those include three autographs or memorabilia cards in every box (at least 30 per case) and are among the newest way to land top talents in their new looks as well as new cards of past and present stars.

So, how well are WNBA stars selling on rarities?

Well, a 1/1 Origins A'Ja Wilson logowoman autographed card recently sold for, well, almost six cases at the sale price ($2,750).

The fascinating part is that's far from the lone big sale from the league this year. Just among recent eBay sales, there are more than 60 instances of cards selling for $400 or more ... now compare that to the box prices up top. Prizm, as always, is powerful but Origins also has some stuff that might not have been seen before by fans ready to add them to their collections.

Once more boxes get ripped even more big sales can and will happen.
