Product Overview
2025 Doruss WNBA Basketball marks the first release of the product since 2019, and the most popular Donruss insert from other sports will finally make its WNBA debut.
Panini introduced Downtown inserts to Donruss Football in 2018, and the best and brightest players from the WNBA will now get their first chance to shine on the iconic insert.
Hobby boxes of Donruss WNBA Basketball will include 12 packs, and collectors will find three autographs or memorabilia cards and a total of 24 inserts or parallels.
2025 Donruss WNBA Checklist Overview
Panini has not yet announced the size of the Donruss WNBA checklist, though Rated Rookies will be a part of it.
Also unknown as of now is the scope of the parallels, but if the WNBA version follows the pattern set by other sports, there should be a bountiful rainbow of parallels available.
Inserts will be plentiful.
The biggest chase will be the Downtown inserts, and collectors are already buzzing about the possibility of finding a big star like Caitlin Clark.
Other inserts in the 2025 Donruss include:
Tunnel Vision, which feature fashion statements made by players entering an arena
Mascots, which feature team mascots
Courtside, which feature wide-angle action shots
Franchise Features, which take a look at franchise cornerstone players
Panini also takes a trip back in time.
The WNBA began play in 1997, and the only company that gave the players cards that year was Pinnacle, a brand name now owned by Panini.
And while the cards won’t be packed in cans like the original 1997 Pinnacle Inside offering, Panini will pay homage to the first WNBA cards with a 1997 Pinnacle Retro insert designed like that first set.
Announced autograph sets are Private Signings and rookie-centric Next Day On-Card Autographs.
Each card in the base set has a Jersey version with several parallels, including a /25 Prime.
