2023-24 Topps Chrome Basketball Checklist and Details :

2023-24 Topps Chrome sees one of the hobby’s
juggernauts return with NBA stars, rookies
and legends but no NBA logos. Despite this,
there are plenty of Refractors, colorful inserts
and autographs, including rookie ink from Victor Wembanyama
and some of the first LeBron James autograph cards in a long time.
Hobby boxes include a pair of signatures.

2023-24 Topps Chrome Basketball Checklist Overview
A total of 190 cards make up the set.
Licensed by the NBA Players Association,
it includes lots of the game’s big names
and the season’s top rookies.
There’s also a smattering of retired stars.
With Panini holding the NBA-exclusive, players are not pictured
in full pro uniforms and cards do not have team logos.
All base cards have almost 30 different Refractors.
Most of these are fully color-based.
That said, there are also Geometric versions found
in the breaker box configuration
and basketball background parallels in retail packs.
Topps Chrome Autographs, Certified Rookie Autographs
and the retail-only Certified Autographs make up most
of the ink on the 2023-24 Topps Chrome checklist.
This includes on-card Victor Wembanyama cards.






Because he has an exclusive deal
with Fanatics, the 2023-24 Rookie of the Year does not
have any autographs in Panini products this year.
For LeBron James, this is only his second set with his signature
since signing as a Fanatics exclusive.
His first?
A one-of-one dual with his son Bronny James
in 2023-24 Bowman Chrome University Basketball.
Larry Bird, Magic Johnson and Shaquille O’Neal
are among the Hall of Famers
with autographs in 2023-24 Topps Chrome Basketball.
Inserts are a bold lot, bringing plenty of pop
and color before even taking Refractors into account.
Most hobby packs will have one with
Coast to Coast, Destiny, Finesse, Season’s Best
and Youthquake likely appearing in every box.
Keeping pace with other recent Topps Chrome sets,
a handful of tough SSP inserts are also available.
These include Exposé, Superfly,
Let’s Go, Helix, Radiating Rookies
and Rock Stars.






2023-24 Topps Chrome Basketball Marks Product’s Return After 15-Year Absence :


The brand that began when Kobe Bryant and Allen Iverson were rookies, is finally back.
As we first wrote last April, Topps’ exclusive
autograph deal with Victor Wembanyama
is helping spur a new wave of Topps basketball releases
including 2023-24 Topps Chrome, set for pre-order release on Monday.
Topps Chrome Basketball debuted in 1996 and was last released in 2009.
Panini took over the NBA trading card license the following season.
It has traditionally one of the most popular and widely collected basketball brands.
While Fanatics/Topps won’t have the full NBA license until 2025, the company
is taking advantage of Wembanyama’s immense popularity
to push out a product devoid of league and team logos
and trademarks but carrying the hallmarks of the brand
that has carried on in baseball and other sports
Boxes of 2023-24 Topps Chrome Basketball
will hold 12 packs with eight cards per pack.
Each box will have two autographed cards.
Cases will hold 12 boxes.
Other box configurations are in the works as well,
including blasters, Breaker’s Delight and Monster.
All will have their own exclusives attached as
is typical with most product releases.
A complete factory set is also expected to be released at some point.
Victor Wembanyama will be card #1 in the base set (see the checklist below).
He’ll also be included across several different inserts and autographed cards.
There are a mountain of Refractor parallels–most differentiated by border color.
Among the other players with autographs in ’23-24 Chrome include :
LeBron James, Larry Bird, the late Bill Walton, Shaquille O’Neal,
Anfernee Hardaway, Jayson Tatum and Jalen Brunson.
The James autographs will be his first solo signed cards
since he agreed to leave Upper Deck for Fanatics.
In addition to the standard Topps Chrome autographs,
there will be a 1972-73 style subset
with autographs from more than 50 players.
Short printed inserts in the new version will include :
Superfly, Exposé, Let’s Go!, Rock Stars—which Topps calls “a nostalgic nod
to a classic Topps insert from the 1990s,” Radiating Rookies and Helix.
The latter has been used recently in Topps Chrome Baseball.
New insert sets include :
Youthquake, Finesse, Destiny, Coast to Coast, and Seasons Best.
A 2003-04 LeBron James Time Machine card is listed among
he insert cards as well, with autographed copies also possible.

Spotlight on Topps Chrome
Topps Chrome has always been a standout among
basketball trading cards, known for its sleek, shiny designs
and the premium feel of its cards.
The return of this series is highly
anticipated by collectors, especially
with the inclusion of autograph deals that Topps has secured
with key NBA players like LeBron James.
One of the most exciting aspects of the Topps Chrome relaunch
is the promotional spotlight on an autographed
rookie card for Victor Wembanyama!
Given Wemby's deal with Fanatics
his autograph has not yet appeared
in a basketball set so this makes the upcoming
set especially interesting to collectors.
