Got our hands on the higher-end basketball product Panini Preferred basketball, and was delighted with the results.  The product features three packs containing one hit each and a rookie book card.  Also included, a five-card pack of Kobe Anthology cards that has randomly inserted autographs and relic cards, but not in the one that was included in this particular box.

What did we get?

The design of the cards pulled looked fantastic.  The first card was a Crown Royale Rookie Silhouette of Moe Harkless numbered to 99.  Great jersey with stripe featured in the upper part of card and a nice blue, on-card signature at the bottom.

Next was the Blue Parallel Panini’s choice award feature Hall of Famer, Clyde Lovellette.  The blue versions are numbered to only 20 copies and this one was card four from that series.  These are smaller, die-cut versions of the normal-sized cards.

The third pack featured another Silhouette card of LaMarcus Aldridge, but unfortunately a redemption.

The rookie book card was numbered 108/249 and featured Anthony Davis, Bradley Beal, Michael Kidd-Gilchrist, Dion Waiters, Thomas Robinson and Damian Lillard.  You’ll notice in the video that each player featured a different color relic, which made for a stunning pop of color.

There are no base cards in this set, so design wise the inserts were pretty solid.  Redemption in a high-end product are never fun, but as long as replaced quickly, there should be no problem.  Enjoy the video and let us know what you think in the comments below!
