Topps' return to basketball cards appears to be coming soon

It looks like Topps is getting back into the basketball card market.

The former NBA card licensee last produced a basketball set early in the 2009-10 card season before the league opted for Panini America as an exclusive card-maker. But a new image floating around social media channels -- one from a likely first-round draft pick -- indicate there's more cardboard to come.

The player is former Kentucky Wildcats guard Tyler Herro and it comes from an Instagram video he posted after completing a signing of what looks like a new Topps Chrome draft picks set.

The cards don't carry Wildcats logos -- Panini also has the CLC license -- but with a draft class that includes the highly touted Zion Williamson it seems that this is the year for a comeback.

Topps officials did not have any comment at this time.
