Todays' episode shares Gary's early reactions to the season debuts of all these guys, and some perspective about all of our early reactions.

What Happened to Hoops and Cards and our Five Guys to Watch during Baskeball Buying Season!
Life happens, even for an NBA Podcaster! In the middle of a series about "five players to watch or invest in during the offseason," our host's wife came down with colon cancer and his Dad was sent to the hospital. Gary, our podcast host, breaks free from a rough few weeks to bring us (finally) some thoughts on Basketball Buying season and two of the best young players in the NBA.
Tyrese Maxey and Shai Gilgeous-Alexander are two very familiar names to listeners of Hoops, as Gary has been personally investing in their cards for years now, and loves watching them develop as players and playoff leaders.
As always, we would love to hear from you via Instagram DM @hoopsandcards or email gary@hoopsandcards.com!

Five Episodes, Five Days, Five Players for the Basketball Card Offseason (Episode 1 of 5)
Welcome to the first episode of our "FIVE" - Five players we are targeting during the NBA offseason in Basketball Cards, rookies, autos, and grails. Each player in this series is already playing at an All-Star level, during the first few years of his NBA career, for a team that has already made some noise in the playoffs. Gary welcomes you back with a familiar name - a point guard who should have been an Eastern Conference All-Star, whose pop counts and RPA's are fewer and harder to find. Playing in the largest market in the league, this clutch, unstoppable scorer still has a lot of upside value for collectors and investors in today's Basketball Card hobby.

Which teams and players look primed and ready for a push to the "next level" of NBA greatness?
