Fanatics, the worldwide collectibles and merchandising platform, has struck an exclusive collaboration with basketball great LeBron James and his son Bronny James in a pioneering move that will send shockwaves across the collectibles sector. Due to this deal all basketball lovers and collectors are in for something special as the NBA legend and his eldest kid, prepare to create history with a one-of-a-kind basketball card.

Michael Rubin, the CEO of Fanatics who has a $11.5 billion net worth, expressed his delight about this relationship. According to him, this collaboration not only represents a commitment to quality but also a commitment to raising the trading card hobby to new heights.

LeBron James & Bronny card brings a revolution in the trading card market

The collaboration begins with a remarkable one-of-one autographed LeBron James dual autograph card. This collectible artwork depicts LeBron in his high school outfit from St. Vincent-St. Mary’s beside his son, Bronny, wearing the USC Trojans jersey representing the bond between the father and son on and off the court. And celebrating the deal with Fanatics, LeBron James took to Instagram to put up a story with the 1-of-1 card of him and Bronny and wrote, “Card goes CRAZY!!!” 

This rare one-of-a-kind card is part of the 2023-24 Bowman University Chrome Basketball collection, which will be available later this month and the excitement around this rare card is extraordinary as it represents a fusion of family, heritage, and basketball greatness. The Akron Hammer has signed a multiyear trading card deal with Fanatics Collectibles, a notable departure from his previous connection with Upper Deck. This move gives James’s trading card enterprises a new viewpoint, and the unique 1-of-1 card is just the first product of this collaboration.

However, this is not the first time the 39-year-old star has had an exclusive trading card. His “Triple Logoman” card from the 2020-21 Panini basketball card set won a whopping $2.4 million at an auction in June 2022. So, the card with Bronny will be highly sought-after by the collectors and the price of that one will also be massive.

So, the 19x All-Stars’ exclusive association with Fanatics promises a new age of famous trading cards as the sports collectibles sector prepares for a revolutionary change. The first release, a one-of-one signed card depicting a father-son encounter, is only the beginning. Fans can anticipate a combination of creativity, passion, and unique collectibles that reflect the glory of one of basketball’s living heroes, LeBron James.
