(LOT 152)
2018 Panini Contenders Optic #128 Luka Doncic Shooting - Auto - Red - Numbered Rookie (#104/149) PSA 10 GEM MINT

TRIPLE-THREAT!!!... The Dallas Mavericks made Luka Doncic the third pick overall in the 2018 NBA Draft after the 6'7" Slovenian guard led his Real Madrid team to the EuroLeague championship and earned the league Most Valuable Player award. In only five seasons of NBA play, his impact has been like no other. Doncic was an unanimous All-NBA Rookie First Teamer and the NBA Rookie of the Year in 2019 following his 1,759 point, 573 rebound and 538 assist season. He led the NBA in triple-doubles in that rookie season with 17 and after only five years in the league Luka ranks among the top ten all-time triple-double leaders with the likes of Oscar Robertson, Magic Johnson, LeBron James and Larry Bird, to name a few.

And the Maverick superstar rookie cards are equally significant. This 2018 Panini Contenders Optic #128 Luka Doncic Shooting - Auto - Red - Numbered Rookie (#104/149) PSA 10 GEM MINT is one of only a dozen at this highest grade. Considering that there is a total of only 34 PSA-graded examples of this limited 149-card subset issue, this GEM MINT 10 is rare and one of the most sought-after rookie editions of any current players taking the court each night in the NBA. This Luka Doncic Rookie is superb in every way with brilliant imagery as Doncic stormed the paint for a layup; razor-sharp corners and edges; perfect centering; and pristine surfaces, not to mention a flawless autograph at center. Already with more than 50 triple-doubles in only 4-1/2 seasons, Doncic is well on his way to threaten record books and place himself among the great Hall of Famers.
