2013 ushered in a young international star from Greece name Giannis Antetokounmpo. His fairy-tale rise has made him a global sensation, turning a dismal Bucks team into NBA champions. While doing this, Giannis has emerged as arguably the NBA's top talent, capturing 6 All-Star appearances, 2 league MVPs, DPOY award, NBA Championship, and a Finals MVP. Coming into its 5th year basketball release, 2013 National Treasures continued as the pinnacle of high-end trading cards, offering collectors/investors the best chance to obtain player-worn materials, hard-signed autographs, NBA Logoman pieces and iconic RPA's. Released within a 33-card Rookie Patch Autograph set is Giannis’s #130 RPA, shortly printed with a number not coming close to satisfying demand. Offered is the 16/99 specimen, professionally assessed by Beckett as MINT with subgrades – centering 8.5, corners 9.0, edges 9.5, and surfaces 9.0. Enclosed by a beautiful holofoil is a stunning 3-color jersey relic with the pristine hard-signed autograph resting just below. Giannis has his team primed for another final’s appearance. If he repeats, his cards should go next level, and this card sets the tone for next level. Comes with PWCC’s highest recommendation.
