After two weeks of resounding demand, seeing more than 41,000 orders for just 12,000 Packs, we’re back with a last call for Rookie Debut Packs for the 2023-24 season.
This will be the last dedicated Rookie Debut drop where you will have the opportunity to pull Rookie Debuts from Victor Wembanyama, Chet Holmgren, Scoot Henderson, Brandon Miller, and the Thompson Twins.
When these upcoming drops conclude, more than 91% of these phenoms’ Rookie Debut Moments will have been distributed, allowing collectors to buy and sell these Moments in the Marketplace with confidence.
The remainder of these Rookie Debut Moments will be distributed as inserts in premium drops, and as inserts in premium Leaderboard/Set Reward Packs.
