2017-18 SPECTRA BASKETBALL ($280 per box) THIS WEDNESDAY AT SPORTS CARDS PLUS


It’s about as colorful and as spectacular as a trading card product can get. It’s a different-by-design kind of take on Panini America’s popular Prizm technology with a rainbow array of parallel chases, lots of autographs and lots of memorabilia. It annually delivers some of the most striking single cards in the game with a hit-heavy recipe with prime possibilities. It, of course, is Spectra Basketball — and it arrives this Wednesday at Sports Cards Plus.

2017-18 Spectra Basketball returns with a new parallel structure that features Silver Prizms (two per case) and White Sparkle Prizms (one per case).
