This episode of Card Ladder Confidential is built for the collector who thinks deeply about what matters.

Brett kicks things off with a cold open on three rising NBA stars—Jalen Brunson, Tyrese Haliburton, and Shai Gilgeous-Alexander—and how collectors might value their cards differently based on jersey and timing.

Chris and Josh offer perspective on:

• Rookie cards vs. team-defining moments
• What makes a Logoman worth six figures
• The allure of a PSA 10 on a one-of-one
• Emotional slowdowns in a player PC
• The Haliburton heat check, both on-court and in auctions

Plus, we revisit the Giannis Black Mosaic 1/1 sale and unpack what it meant for the hobby—and why it still stirs something in collectors years later.

If you’ve ever struggled with what to chase, when to pivot, or how hype distorts value, this one is worth your time.
