Card #7/365: 06-07 UD Exquisite Jermaine O’Neal/Andrea Bargnani Patch Auto 7/7 (📸eBay/johnnyandbronny)

I actually had an Andrea Bargnani PC back in the day and this was the crown jewel of that collection. I really thought he was going to be the next Dirk. Can’t win ‘em all. #TheHobby

This card is a dream for any fan of the Boston Celtics. The card has a thick, chunky piece of the classic edge of the soul of a pair of Chuck Taylor’s. The style that was worn by many basketball players in the early years in the NBA. Bill Russell has 11 championships and is one of the greatest Celtics to ever play…one of the NBA is all-time greats. The upper deck exquisite brand is well known and high-end, and this features of bold, bright, clear on-card autograph.

Surprisingly, there aren’t a ton of high-end Reggie Wayne or Marvin Harrison game-used patches out there. This is a nice game used nameplate patch with an on-card auto. Wayne should be in the HOF in then next couple of years. Clearly, it’s a bit easier as a stud WR when you have Peyton throwing to you!

My only Luka auto - this Upper Deck Exquisite Rookie Patch Auto. Just a fantastic card of a young rookie Luka. Fun watching him play - despite my hatred of the Lakers, he’s good for the NBA and I hope we can stay healthy now they he’s lost his Ozempic weight.
