The year 2012 was a big one for basketball—both on the court, and in the card world. That year, the NBA Draft brought big-name rookies like Anthony Davis, Bradley Beal, and Damian Lillard to the NBA, with second rounders Draymond Green and Khris Middleton also developing into stars. This was on the heels of an even stronger 2011 draft class, which featured several future All-NBA players like Kyrie Irving, Kawhi Leonard, and Jimmy Butler. Both drafts happened to coincide with Topps’ departure from the basketball card space, though with its 2012-2013 releases, Panini filled this vacuum in spectacular fashion. Yet no Panini product has meant more to the industry than 2012 Prizm. The company’s answer to Topps Chrome, this groundbreaking release introduced the iconic Prizm design that has since become a staple of sports card collecting. In addition to its clean look, ‘12 Prizm was also buoyed by its extensive rookie checklist, which included the first-year cards of both 2011 and 2012 draftees. This BBCE-authenticated hobby case contains 12 boxes, with each hobby box containing an average of two Silver Prizms and offering a chance at hobby exclusive Gold Prizms /10. Autographs are also a major draw of this release, averaging two per box and featuring subjects ranging from Anthony Davis, Bradley Beal, and Draymond Green to Kevin Durant, Kobe Bryant, and even Kareem Abdul-Jabbar. With over 1,400 cards inside, this 2012 Prizm case presents a prime opportunity to chase highly coveted cards from one of the most iconic basketball sets of all time.
