The future Hall of Famer Kevin Durant stars on this exclusive and elite 2006 Topps McDonald’s All-American Autograph pre-NBA debut collectible. This premium Topps offering originates from Durant’s personal card collection, adding massive levels of prestige to the already historic card.
Durant, the leading scorer and co-MVP of the 2006 McDonald’s All-American Game, has signed the card’s front in blazing blue ink. The Brooklyn Nets star also adds his personality to the front as he is pictured flashing a Hook ‘em Horns hand sign on this rare piece.
Graded MINT 9 by PSA. Just 16 examples of this card are currently in the PSA population report — and only three have been graded higher! Shortly before Durant’s NBA career began, the 11-time All-Star signed with Upper Deck, leading to Topps destroying the lion’s share of these cards; however, a select few have remained in the hobby, with this rare example carrying the additional importance of having come from Durant’s own collection!
What makes this card stand out from the even the small run that exists is the Topps hologram sticker affixed to the back. Just three cards with the official sticker are known to exist.
This card is a truly historic piece of Kevin Durant’s magnificent NBA career. A career that has seen him win two NBA titles, along with two NBA Finals MVP awards, a 2008 NBA Rookie of the Year Award, as well as two Olympic gold medals. This striking collectible is from Durant’s personal collection, is limited to an exceptionally low run, and is just one of three to be known with the Topps hologram sticker on back — making this an essential card, in vibrant Mint condition
