As the NBA playoffs heat up, the 2023-24 Panini Select Basketball collection will soon be available, offering collectors a vibrant mix of autographs, memorabilia, and exclusive parallels, set for release on May 10.
As the NBA season reaches its climax, the 2023-24 Panini Select Basketball will make its anticipated return, promising an array of colorful and dynamic cards for enthusiasts. This year’s edition maintains its tradition with hobby boxes containing 12 packs, each with five cards, and cases comprising 12 boxes.
Collectors can expect a typical hobby box to include three autographs or memorabilia cards, along with 12 Prizm parallels, offering a rich variety of collecting opportunities. Additionally, the series will feature H2 boxes, which do not guarantee autographs, as well as Mega Boxes and Blasters that include exclusive parallels unique to those formats.
The collection boasts three tiers of base cards: Concourse, Premier Level, and Courtside, each offering distinct visuals and rarity. Parallels are plentiful and include exciting options like the sport-printed Zebra and Gold Glitter, Tie-Dye (limited to 25), Gold (limited to 10), Green (limited to 5), and the highly coveted 1/1 Black Finite versions.
New to this year's lineup are the Select Few Signatures and Hall Selections Signatures, enhancing the autograph offerings with multiple parallel variations. The Rookie Signatures and Rookie Jersey Autographs continue to feature prominently, along with Jumbo Signature Rookie Swatches that include memorabilia pieces.
Other notable autograph sets include In-Flight Signatures, Prime Selections Signatures, and Select Pairings Signatures. Additionally, collectors will find patch autographs in the X-Fractor Memorabilia Signatures and Autographed Memorabilia sets, with hobby-exclusive 1/1 Black Finite parallels available.
Hobby-exclusive inserts like Unstoppable, Select Future, Sensations, Snapshots, and En Fuego will offer various parallel possibilities including Silver Prizm, Tie-Dye Prizms (numbered to 25), Gold Prizm (numbered to 10), Green Prizms (numbered to 5), and the elusive 1/1 Black Finite.
The collection also features short-printed inserts like the returning Color Wheel and the newly introduced Starcade, adding another layer of rarity and excitement for collectors.
Set to release on May 10, the 2023-24 Panini Select Basketball is gearing up to be a highlight of the collecting season, aligning with the excitement of the NBA playoffs and offering something for both seasoned collectors and new enthusiasts.
