Kobe Bryant spent 20 seasons at the pinnacle of the basketball world, winning five NBA titles and scoring 33,643 points for the Los Angeles Lakers. An 18-time All-Star, the former Lower Merion High School star built a fervent fan base thanks to his cold-blooded “Mamba Mentality,” culminating in his NBA Most Valuable Player season of 2007-08. Bryant averaged a cool 25.0 points per game in his NBA career, with his legendary single-game high of 81 points coming against Jalen Rose and the Toronto Raptors on January 22nd, 2006. Bryant was posthumously inducted into the Naismith Memorial Basketball Hall of Fame in 2020.
Hall of Famer. Los Angeles Lakers legend Kobe Bryant’s “Nike Air Zoom Kobe IX” custom made shoes are celebrated on this one-of-a-kind Panini card. Bryant’s vibrant, gold ink signature and a stunning .999 fine platinum one troy ounce ingot-style adornment highlight the front of this premium collectible. A statement on the card's back states Panini's warranty for the authenticity of the signature, and serves as the item's COA. The limited-edition piece is serial-numbered “1/1.” The piece exhibits favorable, fundamentally uncirculated display quality. This is Panini's first platinum precious metal card. This is the only premium card in the set with an autograph.
