This 2003 Topps LeBron James rookie card, numbered #221, captures the future all-time leading scorer at the 2003 NBA Draft holding up his Cleveland Cavaliers jersey. Graded PSA 9 Mint, this card represents a highly graded example of one of the most recognizable rookie cards in the modern era. The PSA population report shows 9,443 examples at this grade level. The 2003 Topps flagship basketball set is a foundational release of the 21st century, and this base rookie is notorious for condition sensitivity due to the red borders on the card front and reverse, which easily show edge chipping and corner wear. Now in his 21st NBA season, James continues to build upon his historic legacy. During the 2023-24 season, he became the first player in NBA history to surpass 40,000 career regular-season points. He continues to play at an elite level, averaging 25.7 points, 7.3 rebounds, and 8.3 assists per game, maintaining his status as an active force in the league while adding to his unparalleled resume of four MVP awards and four NBA championships.Show more
