The juggernaut is coming. Flawless Basketball, one of the most extravagant brands in the history of sports card collecting, is preparing to close out the 2015-16 NBA collecting season with a thunderous finale by delivering its trademark brand of high-end hoops hysteria.
Set to arrive in mid September, Panini America’s 2015-16 Flawless Basketball returns with the hobby’s rarest base set (limited to just 20 diamond-embedded sets), a poignant memorabilia tribute to Flip Saunders and the Flawless debut of Logoman and Championship Tags memorabilia cards.
Every 10-card briefcase of 2015-16 Flawless Basketball will include seven autograph cards, two encased jewel cards and one Jumbo Patch memorabilia card.
