Earlier this month we saw one of the bigger releases in terms of recent years when it comes to Topps basketball products with the release of 2023/24 Topps Chrome McDonald's All-American Basketball. Boxes are now available for purchase in store and online now.
In each box you’ll find on average:
- 2 Autographs
2023/24 Topps Chrome McDonald's All-American Basketball is filled with cards of the top high school basketball players in the country in both men’s and women’s. So why is it such a big release if it features high school players? Because it features arguably the greatest player of all time, son's first ever card, Bronny James.
This will be the first ever licenced card that Bronny James has ever had which is a huge deal. If he can put together a career half as good as his father's, then his autographs from this product could hold their value very well over time. When it comes to this product, it’s a fun rip. I’m a fan of Topps products and I’ve always loved Topps Chrome. So to see it on a basketball product gets me excited for a possible future where we might see NBA cards created by Topps.
We had to get our hands dirty and open one of these boxes in hopes that we could hit a Bronny autograph and toss it in the safe for a later date. Below are all of the hits from our box including a bonus autograph!
I’ve gotta start off with saying that we did hit a Bronny, but unfortunately it was not an autograph. From what I’ve heard in the news it looks like he’ll be returning to practice some time this week so we might see him in action soon for USC.
Next up we have some of the inserts in our box. I really like the ‘New Wave' inserts which fall 1:20 packs and the “Future Stars” inserts which fall 1:7 packs. Matas Buzelis is supposed to be the 1st overall pick in a future draft from what I’ve been hearing. There’s a young kid that comes into the shop every once in a while looking for his cards, so this will be added to his stack.
We had 2 numbered parallels in our box plus a McDonald’s Game Logo parallel. The Ron Holland Aqua Wave is numbered to 199 copies and the KK Arnold Fuchsia Refractor is numbered to 125 copies.
I mentioned it earlier that we got an extra autograph and it turns out it was actually a short printed autograph. Our three autographs were a short printed paper autograph of Aaron Bradshaw, a Jeremy Fears refractor autograph, and a JuJu Watkins Yellow Autograph /75. Watkins was the #1 Ranked player in the country and chose to stay home in Southern California to attend USC.
Overall, I think this was a very good box. You can’t really be mad when you pull the best player in the class as your autograph as well as hitting an extra autograph and some cool inserts. If you’re interested in purchasing a box for yourself you can do so here (2023/24 Topps Chrome McDonald's All-American Basketball).
