Here are our picks for the best NBA rookie cards in the 2000s Lebron James Rookie Cards : His rookie cards are on fire right now! His 2003-04 Topps Chrome #111 Cavaliers RC Rookie Card is a MUST buy right now and will only grow in value over the years (beating the stock market). Stephen Curry Rookie Cards are almost as good as Lebron RCs. We like his 2009 Topps Chrome Rookie Card #101 for a short or long term buy. You can also pick them up at a discount since he is injured and the Golden State Warriors suck right now. Buy both these cards and thank us later!
Buy these cards if you like money... you will thank us in 10 years! Please note PSA Grading is a must if you own any of the cards listed here.
