It’s a season the world has awaited since the night the 2017 NBA Draft ushered in one of the most exciting rookie crops in years. But it’s not just the rookies generating serious anticipation for tomorrow night’s season-openers. It’s a slew of ground-shaking veterans in new places driving anticipation, too.

To celebrate the start of the season, Panini America is using its Panini Instant real-time trading card platform to unveil a 14-card Tip-Off set featuring the likes of Lonzo Ball, Markelle Fultz, Jayson Tatum, Kyrie Irving, Chris Paul, Paul George, Jimmy Butler and more.
