The overlap between NBA and WWE fandom is hard to miss, so we grabbed a pair of heels and gave them cover treatment.
Cop a Gold Metal cover numbered to just 94 if you can get your hands on one or load up on Oranges with the chance of pulling a Platinum numbered to 24.

bullish that 100% of human who've had a basketball card sell for $8 million plus are SLAM enthusiasts
Cooper Flagg's Topps Chrome debut patch just shattered the all-time record for a basketball card.
The 1/1 grail, once the subject of countless bounties from personalities in and out of the collectibles world, sold in a Fanatics Collect auction for $8,040,000.

Scottie Barnes had some fun while CTV’s Sean Leathong was live on air 😭💀

KD on the drama around the WNBA:
"All that stuff is noise, man. WNBA is flourishing. Look what these women are doing. Look at the money they made over the last few years ... The politics they bring into sports nowadays ... I do not give a fuck about that."

I wish I had a PSA 10 (mine is ungraded) but this is hands down the card I am most attached to in my personal collection.
Still have it in the original slab I bought it in for $15 back 25+ years ago.
Who wants these? These are the unlicensed loungewear jerseys Zellers carried in the 90s, vaguely teasing official team colours but with names like PLAYA on the back.
We didn't always see eye-to-eye about what NBA Top Shot was but nobody fought harder (in public and behind-the-scenes) to protect this community than Jacob.
The debates were world-class. I was happy to be Smoke Monster.
You're going to crush it in your next chapter.
Six years ago I joined a company almost nobody had heard of, to work on a product that hadn't publicly launched yet.
Then NBA Top Shot happened.
Texting with NBA stars. An IG Live with Diplo. A YouTube stream with Mark Cuban. Opening for Quavo at Terminal 5. Posting in the Discord at 1 AM so pack-starved collectors could go to sleep, because no, we weren't shock dropping that night. My new doorman asking me if I was the pack drop guy.
I gave the product and team everything I had.
Earlier this month I stepped back from my full-time role at Dapper Labs. This isn't a goodbye. I'm continuing on in an advisory capacity, with a particular focus on athlete partnerships.
I also started graduate school, as I pursue a lifelong dream to become a therapist. Thank you to everyone I got to meet, build with, and learn from. Here's to new beginnings and lots to look forward to.
Just listed my No. 1 LeBron James rainbow on #PaniniBlockchain in case anybody wants to finance my dreams to restore a 1993 Ford Bronco.
Game of Zones is one of the most impressive forms of entertainment in internet history. Sistine Chapel-esque for a specific subset of terminally online hoops fans that religiously watched GOT. You couldn't recreate this in 2026 if you tried, pop culture is too decentralized.
They're here.
The first Platinum Metal SLAM mag to surface on eBay is listed with a Buy It Now price of $2,500.
For the first time in four years, /24 Platinum Metals are back. This time as chase parallels in Orange Metal runs.
Watching momentum build in the sports magazine space >>>
Is this bait? Any model that suggests Draymond Green is one of the losingest players of the past 10 years needs to be scrapped. It's bait. I fell for the bait, didn't I?
Might have to dip into the ol' children's college fund for this one.
The photomatched kicks from Angel Reese's 2023 championship season - worn when she went viral for blocking a shot with one shoe - is up for auction at @Heritage_Sport.
If you have old newsstand issues in decent shape and want to indulge a geriatric millennial with a sports nostalgia addiction, please let me know.
LeBron James' first SLAM cover set a pair of new all-time highs at Goldin last month.
The iconic magazine featuring James and Sebastian Telfair sold for $1,526, a new high watermark for any public sale of a newsstand issue from the early 2000s.
I celebrate any new team with a plural "S".
We are the Cleveland Sirens.
This is HER story. This is HER voice. And the world is listening.

In high school I watched a kid teach himself to play this exact game with his feet and really I've just been chasing that high ever since.
