this video hurts me..I once had the entire SP authentic set ,,Vinsanity caused me to get that set ..and i sold it complete back in 2004 when i moved here ..maybe 200$ i got for it..hurts me..hahahah
Yeah I do, he said he didn't want them to make his shoes to expensive so they'll be affordable for all the kids back then. This is then the sneaker prices were going up at the time and Jordans were starting to come out for around $200 or more.
I'm glad someone else noticed this. Even his base 1996 rookie has gone crazy in the last few weeks. Good luck to anyone trying to snag a chrome of any grade for less than $2-3000.
@@brianb1029 I know... I just picked up 2 more 96 topps base in 1 psa 8.5 and 1 psa 8. Probably should’ve gotten a 9 instead, but I’m still good with the 8’s and up
The Steve Nash card has a picture of him with the hockey stick because he is from Canada, and I believe he was drafted by an NHL team (if my memory serves me correct).

Love your list of 90s greatest rookies like everybody else I went crazy in the 90s buying cards basketball only of course the best pack ever opened cost me $100 it was well worth getting the Michael Jordan rookie I quit collecting basketball cards in 1997 it appears I'm back into it again 30 years later it has taken me to Summers to go through all my cards and pull out rookies have approximately 25 different Kobe Bryant all rookies have the 138 card of Kobe but it's not Chrome I'll be saving all my cards for my grandkids they can have when they're old enough to realize what they're worth thanks for your comments my friend😅😢
Same. I have the Shaq Rookie, along with 4 Copies of the Base from the TSC. It was the first box of cards I bought with my dad, when I was 10. Also just seen my Topps Chrome Youthquake Kobe Bryant, that has sat it a sleeve since I got it in 97. Just recently went through an old room at my dads, and we pulled 5 gigantic boxes of cards and boxed sets from the 90's, from 1990-1998, Baseball, Basketball, and Football cards, but NBA was my main hobby. Luckily the NBA had an amazing 1997 Draft Class, because along with the end or an era in Chicago, 1998 was my last year of collecting because the inserts getting more extravagant and the base cards trying to be so premium that you could get some packs that cost $5 for just 3 cards. It just made the experience no fun. Now nearly 30 years later, its becoming fun, more so for the memories it brings back.
@@TheJohnold its funny looking at them again. 97 was the last year I collected. Good year to go out on, have bunches of Kobe rcs in boxes somewhere, including ex 2000 and star date sets. I really need to find them
@@Jim26D yeah those ex 2000 cards were so damn cool. And the Fleer Metal, for a base set looked great in 97. It feels like 96 was a low point for cards, 97 was the peak, and then 98 is when it got too big for its own britches lol
Steve Nash rookie cards went up significantly, when he was named the new head coach of the Brooklyn Nets...it could go up again, with a championship ring
I really enjoy and appreciate your approach of not including any of the chase cards and only focusing in on the base cards, often by player, without repeats. It's entertaining and educational, as well as really useful for most who has cards to see realistic cards they may have in their boxes that could reveal treasure in what might have otherwise been seen as trash.
I'm very disappointed on the worth of my collection I thought some of my cards would be worth thousands of dollars now I find out I'm lucky to get $2 I have Grant Hill and Michael Jordan and Shawn Kemp and one Kobe Bryant and Dennis Rodman and a bunch of others I really don't know much about card collecting but I I'm concerned people will tell me they're only worth a $2 and that they'll give me $5 and then turn around and I find out they're worth thousands
Grant Hill. Man his cards bring back memories and everybody wanted his rookie cards. Good career but could have been better, but i believe he had leg/ankle issues through all his years in the league
@@collectorinvestordealer injuries derailed his career. The torch was gonna be passed from Jordan to Hill as the face of the nba had he not been injured !
@@dieseldabz7104 even some greats made the claim he was gonna be the face of the league. You can watch nba open court with Isiah Thomas Charles Barkley Shaq Brent Barry and a few others discuss this topic and make the claim themselves. He was great.
@@dieseldabz7104 you must not have been watching back then. He was absolutely the guy that people thought was gonna be the face of the league. He was basically lebron lite. Massive nagging injuries stopped him, but he still had a great overall career.
I thought Penny Hardaway Rookie cards would be worth something but they ain't really worth squat. Crazy considered how good of a player he was. Nice video btw
I think a big part of Vince's popularity, aside from that amazing dunk competition performance, is because he played for Canada's only (surviving) NBA franchise. On top of that, he brought the Raptors a lot of legitimacy as a competitive team from the late90s-early00s, while the Grizzlies died a slow death with 28 or 29wins being that franchise's best season. It went south for Vince in T.O. over a one to two year period, and Vince was hated for a decade or more, after many fans felt he had phoned in his last season before his trade demands were met. For the past 3 or 4 years though, Toronto fans, and I'd say most Canadian basketball fans have warmed back up to him, probably helping to keep a pretty healthy demand on his cards up here.
I'm from Toronto. I was a huge vince Carter fan. Like most people from Toronto. I collected his cards back in the the day. But now that I am older and have some disposable income. I am buying up all the VC card I could afford as a kid. It bring me back to late 90s to early 2000s great time to live it Toronto.
Thanks that was really helpful! I buy hockey cards collection on Facebook and often they have some Basketball cards in there! Hockey is very popular here in Quebec, basketball not so much so there is lots of good opportunities when buying these lots. For 15$ I got 200 cards and there was 10 Michael Jordan in good condition from the 90s. But I can see that I missed some other good players.
This video makes me cringe for what today’s cards will be worth in 20 years, talking about guys that are in the hall of fame with only 3 or 4 rookie cards being worth $20, Zion has like 2000+ rookie cards including parallels and autos, how will they possibly hold value
Thanks for the awesome video. This is my favorite NBA time period. It’s a little sad to see how much some of these legends cards go for just because they were rookies during the junk wax era. Should also be a cautionary tale for people investing heavy into young prospects today as many of them will never get close to the accomplishments of some of these legends.
Very good point about the cautionary tale. There was a point in time when Grant Hill, Anfernee Hardaway, Derrick Coleman, Chris Webber, Alonzo Mourning, and many many others cards value were through the roof
some good pick ups .,,still have a few of those old ones..love this video ..really cool..tracy and penny were the talk back then ..before kobe ..thanks again
I literally got every last one of these cards. Mom told me to come get all my boxes of basketball cards from when I was a kid and decided to look up 90s cards. Nice video
Thank you so much for the nostalgia! I know every. single. one of these players. I was huge into collecting basketball cards back in the mid to late 90's. Hill was my favorite to collect being from Michigan. This was amazing. Keep it up - I have many, many of these rookies raw. Not sure the conditions, but I will definitely look into it when I get to see my collection at my dad's. Take care!
Excellent video as always. Love love love videos about 90s cards. If your looking for video ideas. How about one with print run numbers of sets from the junk wax era, and the PSA pop counts and gem rates. It floors me how low the pop count for some of those cards are, compared to how high the print runs were. And vice versa for ultra modern cards now.
The 90s killed card collecting. They over produced so many of these cards, only the inserts and special editions ended up being valuable. I have most of these cards and its disappointing to see how cheap they all are.
9:26 Incorrect, Dirk Nowitzki didn’t win league MVP that year it was Derrick Rose however Dirk won Finals MVP that year and won league MVP for the 2006-07 season.
Great subject but grant hill didn’t just fade away. He was injured for 4 years in a row. He caught a leg infection that almost killed him. But he came back to still be a good player.
I can't remember how much Grant Hill was worth the first few years he was out but pretty sure it was more than today. People forget how good he was before injuries. Never thought Webber played up to his potential. Duncan still so underrated. Marbury so overrated.
His base Hoops, Upper Deck n Topps RC were worth $4 to $5. Webbers were worth $3 n $4 as well as Penny. Shaq's were all over place. Kidd's were $3 n $4. Mashburn was $2 n $3. Glenn Robinson's were $3. Shaun Bradley $2. JR Rider $2. Larry Johnsons were $5.
I have 2 or 3 of them. I had the entire hoops set for that year, I handed it down to my son. He is an avid hockey card collector and still has that set I gave him 👍🏻😁
@@tashahatzidakis5680 I've called a few friends the past week and just between us we've dug up dozens of these supposedly valuable cards from the early 90s. These prices are fake imo
Great list, thank you for sharing! I really thought Duncan would be #2, that’s surprising. And I think Kidd is undervalued as #2 all time in career assists. Been buying some of his rookie variations recently.
If you re look at the prices dirks chrome psa 9 hovers around 700 and timmys at 650 now. Vince’s still hasn’t passed the 400 mark. The market seems to be adjusting and timmys rookies are no longer underrated.
Hey Chris, thanks for this list, l've got a bunch of BBall cards from the 90's. I've been collecting as many Kobe rookies as I can. All different versions, l do have a couple of his Upper Decks too. Have a good day, looking forward to your next High Rollers. Cheers.
Hi, Im just an Aussie from down under that got handed some basketball card over 15 years ago, I've kept them in my undies draw, they have moved with me many times.. So i got them out yesterday and thought i would do a little research. it got me here to your video.. turns out i have 2 Shawn Kemp cards. (1990), Im pretty sure they are the only cars worth more than a few $$, But can you recommend somewhere I could I could send a PDF of all the cards I have.. (150) cards in total.. Im sure there is someone that would appreciate them more than me...
Hi Chris! ... man, thats the bug ... how to determine a players rookie with they have so many in that rookie year ... right now Im trying to figure our Klay Thompson's rookie and I think its the 2012 Panini Prizm ... but hell, its got a Gold, Green and Silver ... and I think its got a bas Panini card as well ... BTW, I think that card is so undervalued considering his injury, out of site out of mind ... I think it 4x when he comes back in 2021/22 ... POlease give you're insite :)
Yes, the Klay Thompson 2012 Prizm is his Rookie Card. All the prizm parallels (Silver, green, etc) are considered RCs as a well. He has a few other official "RC"s from 2012, Panini, Prestige, Hoops. I like your thinking... hes out of mind at the moment, could be a good chance to pick him up at a discount.
I enjoyed the vid and subbed as I am a huge 90s fan, I have quite a collection of 90s NBA, NFL, and MLB stars. Check a few of my vids please. I would appreciate some pointers as your channel is awesome bro!!
Some of the values are due to lack of championships and not being a ‘game changer’ in the league. Vince made a huge impact but has no rings unfortunately. Dirk has 1 ring but changed the way the NBA looks at European players. Shaq made a huge impact and is a 4X champ and 10th in GOAT and his cards aren’t worth much which makes no sense. He’s just not a flashy player which everyone looks for these days. Duncan is undervalued as well but he played a career in SA and wasn’t exactly an attention seeker personality wise. I’m for Kobe all the way though some would argue Shaq was the reason they won etc so there’s arguments for lots of them. I could go on and on but you’ll get the idea.
These are all affordable and readily available.Its not too late to start collecting them now. You now have the luxury of not paying the premium that we did back then in the '90s for them.
Great list, I have lots of these cards shown in my collection. Very hard to believe that Toni Kukoc made this list over some far better players like Alonzo Mourning & Shawn Marion.
LOVE these types of videos! Looking forward to your List for early 2000s Baseball Rookies, as that was the era I grew up collecting in! Thanks for all your knowledge and effort in making these videos!
I'd like to see a version of this video where you rank the rookie base with handicaps reflecting average prices of cards in the set... with these weighted averages in place I am guessing players like Vince Carter (SP serial numbered) or most anyone in Topps Chrome 96 this side of Kobe/Iverson would drop quite a bit.
this video hurts me..I once had the entire SP authentic set ,,Vinsanity caused me to get that set ..and i sold it complete back in 2004 when i moved here ..maybe 200$ i got for it..hurts me..hahahah
the Carter SPA RC was the card to have back in the day
I lost mine the old fashioned way...MAMA thinking about that Kobe rookie hurts real good right now
I liked his filas
I've sold more cards yrs ago now that had I kept them I'd be much wealthier than I am now that's for sure.
Kobe out sells everyone on the list combined 🤔 Kobe or 19 others? 🤷🏻♂️
No disrespect to Kobe but that doesn't seem right
I'd gladly take the other 19 cards vs that 1 Kobe if I had to choose.
whats new. Look at Mike Trout vs. Every other HOF quality player. Hobby latches onto a few guys and their prices dominate the market
@@collectorinvestordealer hey Chris, don't be hate'n on Kobe lol
Anyone else remember Marbury's shoes?..they were only $15 new..LOL
Yeah I do, he said he didn't want them to make his shoes to expensive so they'll be affordable for all the kids back then. This is then the sneaker prices were going up at the time and Jordans were starting to come out for around $200 or more.
Yup I remember seeing them at Walmart.. or K mart.. one of the two

Could be purchased at Steve and Barry's along with a 8dollar hoodie of your favorite team

I thought or maybe Dirk would be #2. Surprised it was Carter. Agreed, Kidd's RCs are super cheap at the moment
If you re look at the prices dirks chrome psa 9 hovers around 700 and timmys at 650 now. Vince’s still hasn’t passed the 400 mark. The market seems to be adjusting and timmys rookies are no longer underrated.
Thanks I have some.
Hey Chris, thanks for this list, l've got a bunch of BBall cards from the 90's. I've been collecting as many Kobe rookies as I can. All different versions, l do have a couple of his Upper Decks too.
Have a good day, looking forward to your next High Rollers. Cheers.
Hey Chuck, thats awesome to hear. The 90s is when I was the most obsessed with cards, so Im all about the 90s cards. Cant go wrong with Kobe RCs
Hi, Im just an Aussie from down under that got handed some basketball card over 15 years ago, I've kept them in my undies draw, they have moved with me many times.. So i got them out yesterday and thought i would do a little research. it got me here to your video.. turns out i have 2 Shawn Kemp cards. (1990), Im pretty sure they are the only cars worth more than a few $$, But can you recommend somewhere I could I could send a PDF of all the cards I have.. (150) cards in total.. Im sure there is someone that would appreciate them more than me...
Love the videos great insight. I think you missed Shaq's Topps Gold, seems to be his most valuable rookie card
Appreciate that! This list was only looking at base cards (not inserts or parallels), The Shaq Gold is a parallel
@@collectorinvestordealer oh that makes sense. I thought the Topps gold was a set since you can buy a box of Topps gold
@@His.Wickedness back then you used to get one Topps gold per pack
Hi Chris! ... man, thats the bug ... how to determine a players rookie with they have so many in that rookie year ... right now Im trying to figure our Klay Thompson's rookie and I think its the 2012 Panini Prizm ... but hell, its got a Gold, Green and Silver ... and I think its got a bas Panini card as well ... BTW, I think that card is so undervalued considering his injury, out of site out of mind ... I think it 4x when he comes back in 2021/22 ... POlease give you're insite :)
Yes, the Klay Thompson 2012 Prizm is his Rookie Card. All the prizm parallels (Silver, green, etc) are considered RCs as a well. He has a few other official "RC"s from 2012, Panini, Prestige, Hoops. I like your thinking... hes out of mind at the moment, could be a good chance to pick him up at a discount.
@@collectorinvestordealer that’s how it goes, gotta buy when nobody is thinking about the guy, can’t buy high when dude is trending
Great pictures of classic 90's cards. Makes me want to pump up my shoes.
Ha!
96-97 was the best year for basketball cards
Tough to argue that!
have flagged this video as 90s basketball is basically porn
Haha exactly :)
How much is the kobe bryant #55 skybox premium
Ungraded, it sells for around $50 - $100
Do u by cards
I enjoyed the vid and subbed as I am a huge 90s fan, I have quite a collection of 90s NBA, NFL, and MLB stars. Check a few of my vids please. I would appreciate some pointers as your channel is awesome bro!!
Kobe is top 6
90s Rookies were great! Thanks for making and posting this video.

Dirk's cards are under priced..Duncan's too considering what he accomplished..
Agreed, Duncan is way underpriced compared to others of the era. Just wasnt as flashy a player...
Some of the values are due to lack of championships and not being a ‘game changer’ in the league. Vince made a huge impact but has no rings unfortunately. Dirk has 1 ring but changed the way the NBA looks at European players. Shaq made a huge impact and is a 4X champ and 10th in GOAT and his cards aren’t worth much which makes no sense. He’s just not a flashy player which everyone looks for these days. Duncan is undervalued as well but he played a career in SA and wasn’t exactly an attention seeker personality wise. I’m for Kobe all the way though some would argue Shaq was the reason they won etc so there’s arguments for lots of them. I could go on and on but you’ll get the idea.
I basically agree on all points. Duncan super underrated.
None!!!!
Nice Vince Carter!! Wished I started early in collecting NBA players.
Great 20 NBA players. They all look great sir.
Have a great Wednesday sir!!
Appreciate that, you have a great day as well!
These are all affordable and readily available.Its not too late to start collecting them now. You now have the luxury of not paying the premium that we did back then in the '90s for them.
Great list, I have lots of these cards shown in my collection. Very hard to believe that Toni Kukoc made this list over some far better players like Alonzo Mourning & Shawn Marion.
Yeah I almost didnt look up Kukoc because I assumed he wouldnt make it
Awesome video, I would love to see this video done with golf, I feel as though golf is starting to blow up.
Jordan?
LOVE these types of videos! Looking forward to your List for early 2000s Baseball Rookies, as that was the era I grew up collecting in! Thanks for all your knowledge and effort in making these videos!
Appreciate that! The early 2000s baseball list is actually in the queue, although maybe a while out.
You are losing money getting most of these rookies graded. Not worth it
You would be lucky to find a psa 9 iverson for anything near $320. Not even close.
Yeah the card has jumped a bit in the last couple of months
@@collectorinvestordealer the whole hobby has exploded.
Why do people keep forgettin about the Shaquille O'Neal rookie draft card can't find it seems his acetate card rookie dunross
Great video! Almost 10K subs, congrats
Thanks!
Whats the point of getting those worthless cards graded
Carter still active in the league, so I’m guessing younger collectors have pushed his prices up.
Vince Carter retired last year, but your point is still taken.
Great video! I have exactly one of these cards. LOL the Shaquille O'Neal upper Deck.
I'd like to see a version of this video where you rank the rookie base with handicaps reflecting average prices of cards in the set... with these weighted averages in place I am guessing players like Vince Carter (SP serial numbered) or most anyone in Topps Chrome 96 this side of Kobe/Iverson would drop quite a bit.
