In early November, Panini America will pay tribute to the brand’s brief but vibrant history by injecting 2016-17 Prizm Basketball with a special fifth-anniversary insert and the usual arsenal of visually arresting parallels. Get all of the pertinent information on this year’s release after the jump.
Each hobby box of 2016-17 Prizm Basketball (12 cards per pack, 12 packs per box) will deliver two autographs and 22 Prizm parallels. The highlights of the product are many and include . . .
