Frequently asked
What's the main reason to open 2020-21 Court Kings?
You're chasing autographs from the 2020 rookie class. Fresh Paint and Heir Apparent both have LaMelo Ball, Anthony Edwards, and James Wiseman autos. Every hobby box is guaranteed one autograph, so you've got a solid shot at a rookie auto.
How do the rookie cards work in this set?
Each rookie comes in four different designs: Rookies I (most common), II, III, and IV (super short print). They're not parallels but completely different card numbers and artwork. So you could pull multiple versions of the same player.
What are the key inserts to hunt?
Works in Progress is the new 30-card rookie-focused set. Aurora is hobby-exclusive and harder to find. First Steps returns with sneaker themes. Le Cinque Piu Belle and Rookie Exclusive are also tough pulls. Most boxes hit 2 inserts on average.
What's the parallel situation on base cards?
Base veterans have eight parallel tiers: Artist Proof, Ruby /149, Amethyst /99, Pink /99, Violet /49, Jade /25, Sapphire /25, and Masterpiece 1/1. You'll pull one parallel per box on average.
Who are the star veterans in the base set?
LeBron James, Kevin Durant, Giannis Antetokounmpo, Luka Doncic, and Stephen Curry are all in the 67-card veteran base. The set also includes Zion Williamson, Jayson Tatum, and Joel Embiid.
Is there a memorabilia card in every box?
Yes. Each hobby box averages one memorabilia card along with one autograph, so you're getting two hits per box. That's solid value for a $150 MSRP product.
What makes the card design special?
Court Kings takes an artistic approach to NBA cards, using different artistic techniques and styles throughout the checklist. It's less about the game itself and more about treating players as art subjects, which gives the set a unique visual identity compared to other basketball products.
