Victor Wembanyama was the clear-cut No. 1 overall pick in the 2023 NBA Draft. The San Antonio Spurs knew they were getting an impact player; however, they didn’t know how soon the 19-year-old French baller would make his presence felt. Well, it didn’t take long for Wemby to shine on the brightest stage. The 7-foot-4 center was averaging 20.7 points and 10.4 rebounds per game heading into this week’s games. With Wemby showing everyone he’s the real deal, collectors are trying to get a piece of his hot card market. On March 22, Topps released its Dynasty Baseball. The product features just 16 numbered rookie patch auto (RPA) cards of Wemby. His5/5 card was pulled on release day on Fanatics Live. There’s still time to pick up Dynasty boxes to search for another Wemby auto. |
