So, I’ve been getting into basketball cards lately, specifically Kevin Durant cards. It’s a whole new world, and honestly, it’s been a bit of a wild ride figuring out which ones are worth something and which ones are just, well, not.
First off, I started by just looking around online. It seems like there are tons of Kevin Durant cards out there, from back when he first started playing. I saw that he has cards in like 148 different sets, which is crazy to think about. I was like, “Where do I even begin?”
- I dug a little deeper and found that some of his cards from 2007 are a big deal, especially this one called SP Authentic #AP-13 Authentic Profiles. Apparently, it’s one of the cards that’s been going up in price a lot lately.
- Then there’s another one, the 2007-08 Upper Deck Exquisite Collection Kevin Durant card. From what I read, this one’s also pretty sought after. But these cards? They’re expensive!
I’m not exactly rolling in dough, so I needed to find some more budget-friendly options. I stumbled upon this article that mentioned some “best value” Kevin Durant cards. That sounded more like my speed. It’s tough when you want the cool stuff but don’t want to empty your bank account, you know?
I also found this website that’s like a price guide for Kevin Durant cards. You can see how much they’re worth from different companies that make them. It’s actually pretty cool to see how the prices change over time. I started tracking a few cards on there, just to get a feel for it.
Since Durant had a bunch of rookie cards in 2007, I found this guide that helped me narrow down which ones to focus on. They break them down into different groups, which made it a bit easier to understand. And get this, one of the best ones is the 2007 Topps Chrome Rookie Card #131. It’s a classic, and it’s got that rookie year vibe, which is pretty neat.
What I Learned
This whole experience has been a real learning curve. I’m starting to see why people get into collecting these things. It’s not just about the money, though that’s a part of it. It’s also about the history, the players, and the excitement of finding a card that’s special. And with a player like Kevin Durant, who’s had such an amazing career—Rookie of the Year, MVP, all that—it makes collecting his cards even more interesting.
Honestly, I’m still figuring things out, but it’s been a fun process. Who knew I’d get this into basketball cards? It’s like a whole new hobby I never expected to have. I’m just taking it one step at a time, learning as I go, and trying not to spend all my money in one place. Wish me luck!
