This year’s coveted rookie class has proven worthy of special treatment. Ten of the top rookies have earned their claim to digital collectible history as the first 1-of-1 Moments ever to be released on NBA Top Shot. Each Moment will feature the rookie year, rookie mint, and rookie premiere badges with highlight reel footage from the rookie’s very first game in the NBA. These Moments are some of the most exclusive collectibles in all of sports memorabilia.
