New Panini Basketball Set Announced: 09/10 Panini Platinum Basketball

Panini America announced today a new 2009/10 Basketball Set due out to collectors on July 7, 2010. This set might be one of your final chances to get 09-10 NBA Rookies like Tyreke Evans and Stephen Curry.

Each box will contain 18 Packs with 5 Cards Per Pack. Each pack carries a $5.99 SRP and it should be exciting to see the Prizm Parallel Signatures of NBA stars and Rookies.

One suggestion to Panini - as this set is months away - Add redemptions for 2010/11 Rookies (a la Topps Finest did) as when July comes around, basketball collectors will be talking about the new crop set to come in 2010/11.
