The explosion in popularity of basketball cards is perhaps second only to the rise in popularity of modern cards as the hobby story of the 2020s.  Of course, no basketball player is hotter than Lebron James, the legend that has been elevated into the discussion of the greatest players of all time.  And while fans of basketball history may argue, there is no question King James is in the discussion, the four-time MVP cementing his legacy among the basketball gods.  The key card of the 2003 Topps Chrome set, the rookie card of Lebron is among the most sought after in the hobby.  This example is a beautiful specimen, graded NM-MT 8 by PSA, with brilliant white borders, razor sharp edges, and a clear, dynamic image.  A stunning example of James' first Topps Chrome issue, certainly the key to the set and one of James' most desirable cards.
