2017-18 Panini Prestige Basketball

While 2017-18 Panini Prestige Basketball continues an established hobby reputation, there are still a few things to keep NBA collectors on their toes. Similar to the 2016-17 set , there are also several elements that look to be exclusive to certain retail formats. Perhaps most interesting, Cracked Ice technology, apparently referred to as Crystal in this release, is exclusive to Hobby boxes. Hobby boxes also average a pair of autographs. Bypassing normal distribution, it is believed that Hobby boxes of 2017-18 Panini Prestige Basketball are reserved for brick and mortar stores as part of Panini's Roundtable program.
