 Hi everyone, Joe for JaspysCaseBrace.com. Happy Friday, happy new release day. Here's a new release, 2023, 2024, Donneress basketball. Five bucks, half case, hobby edition, basketball. And we're giving away, this is pick your team number one, giving away the Spurs. Chasing after Wemby's of course. Now, how to win the Spurs? You gotta buy at least two teams. If you get two teams, you'll get one entry. Four teams, get you two entries. Six teams, get you three entries, so on and so forth. So big thanks to this group right here. Thanks for getting in. Let's alphabetize your names and let's see who's gonna get entry. So Adam has four teams, that's two entries. So basically by an even number of teams, half that amount becomes entries. Brian got two teams, that's an entry. Chris got two teams, that's an entry. Hunter with four teams, that's two entries. Jason with two teams, that's an entry. Joseph with four teams, that's two entries. Kevin with two teams, that's an entry. Mark with just one. Pat with two teams, that's an entry. Raymond with two teams, that's an entry. Todd, two teams, that's an entry. So if everyone bought a, should be, I think 14 would be the max entries, maybe. Something like that. Anyway, let me just spot check this really quick too. So my god, Adams two, Brian's one, Chris one. Hunter two, Jason one, Joseph two. Kevin one, Pat one, Raymond one, Todd one. All right, great. Now let's gather all of your names, put them into this list here. And the top name after nine gets the spurs. Six and a three, nine times. One, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight. And fingers crossed, ninth and final time. It's gonna be Kevin, congrats, Kev. After nine times, spurs going your way. Now let's get this back sorted by team and let's print and rip. Hey, you're welcome, Kevin. Now let's see if the boxes cooperate. So now let's show you the official printout, hot off the presses. Second half in the store right now, same promo. Get at least two teams for an entry, a chance at spurs. All right, so this is kind of a heavy awkward size case. I'm gonna keep it on this cart right here. I'm gonna pop open this case, filler paper here and box. One, two, three, four. Right here, there's one, two, three, four, five, right there. So this will be the left side, this will be the right side and we'll roll the die. We'll go one, two, three for the left side, four, five, six for the right side and it's six, right side. And we'll save that side for the next pick your team break, which is pretty close to filling, I think. Let's take a quick look. Yeah, pick your team two is down to its final 17, so let's get that done tonight. All right, now here is the box. We're looking for one autograph per box on average, as they always say. Looking for rated rookies, rated rookie signatures, next day autographs, parallels, numbered cards, et cetera, et cetera, all card ship. Nice, good time for basketball, I think. This is a nice way to get some of the current rookies into your collection. Now that we're pretty much halfway through the NBA regular season right now, we can start seeing, I already kind of know who the top rookies are looking like. According to the latest, I think there was a probably the usual suspects, right? Chet Holmgrim, although his rookie cards were last year. Victor Wenbanyama, obviously. I think Jaime Jaquez, UCLA's Jaime Jaquez has been playing really good basketball for the heat. What other, Brandon Miller for Charlotte has been playing well. Derek Lively for the Mavs, he's been pretty good. The Thompson twins, Amen, and Asura Thompson, I think both of those players have been playing pretty well. Among others, I think those are the, Scoot Henderson is doing all right for Portland. Even if you don't seriously collect basketball, I feel like you should if you're just chasing secondary market value. Because with such a giant global audience, yeah, who's the kid on the Rockets? That's Amen Thompson on the Rockets, his twin brother, Asura Thompson's on the Pistons. Is there another Rockets player that maybe Cam Whitmore should have some upside as well? All right, so here we go. Here's Asura Thompson, Pistons, that'll be for Chris. And there's our first autograph, Derrick Whitehead for the Brooklyn Nets, that's gonna be for Hunter. Adam with the heat. I mean, it's probably gonna be Chet or Wemby, Wembyn Yama, who's gonna win Rookie of the Year. But if those guys didn't exist, I feel like Jaime Jaquez would be right there. Some nice Marvels cards here, let's look for Rookies in that design. Sean Holmes will go to Dallas, that's for Joe. There's the number right there, 39 out of 99. Crunchtime, Jason Tatum. There's another Asura Thompson. All those will go to Chris and Detroit. Here's Scoot Henderson for Portland, that's gonna go to Joe. Here's a Porzingis die cut, 20 out of 75. Joe with the Celtics. Unleashed Paul George. Marvel's Rookie Autos. Don't know, I'll have to consult the checklist. There's Chet Holmgren right here, second year check. I hope so. There's our first Wembyn Yama. Hardwood Masters insert, Rookie card for Kevin. Won the Spurs. Remember to buy at least two teams if you wanna have a chance at getting the Spurs. Purple Yannis, not numbered. Derek Lively for Dallas, that's gonna go to Joe. Colby Jones to 49. I feel like as soon as I flip these cards around, they'll be right side up. Kings, Sacramento, that'll go to Kevin. There's our standard rated Rookie. Your base rated Rookie, Victor Wimbyn. I don't know what these are going for on the secondary market, but I mean, I've watched some of his games. He's gonna be really good. He's already good now. Once he, he's a little skinny. Once he builds into that body, just learns the NBA, unlock defenses. Here's Scoot Henderson to 149 for Portland, that'll be for Joe. And a Victor Wembyn Yama, another one, to sign a different pattern. Hardwood Masters. Cam Whitmore's got some upside for Houston. Brian, there's Amen Thompson, his teammate. Nikola Jokic to 149. And LeBron Marvel's Purple. All right, box one in the books. Looks like this is gonna take a little bit longer than I thought. I'll do a little recap at the end. So I blocked out 45 minutes for this. I think it might be closer to an hour. That's all right, now we know. Now that I got the first box out of the way, I'm gonna get a feel for the pattern and the cards and I can try to move a little quicker, a little more quickly here as well. If you're rewatching the replay of this, you can always fast forward to the end. If you're watching live, you're stuck with me. So we've got some golf on the background. Probably have some basketball games going on right now, right, by this time. There are some games in progress. All of them look like pretty much have just started. Yeah, Mavs are in Atlanta. They're up 9.7, it's all first quarter. Rockets are in Charlotte. Hornets are up 7.5. Sons are in Indiana. Pacers are up 8 to 6, 8 to 7 now. Clippers are in Toronto. These are some later games. We're games starting at the bottom of the hour. At the top of the hour, Magic at Grizzlies. Cavs at Bucks. Thunder at Pelicans. And we'll have Trailblazers at Spurs. Chance to watch Scoot and Wimbanyama square off against each other. Both teams struggling this year. Trailblazers have only 13 wins. And they're 6 and 19 on the road. Spurs are 8 and 36. 3 and 17 at home. Spurs are the favorite though, minus three and a half. All right, next box, good luck. I'll try to move a little bit more quickly through these. I'll try to spot as many of the redemption. Any guesses on the redemption? Try to spot as many of these rookies as possible. And there's Malachi Abranum to 149, Spurs. Jaren Jackson Jr., die cut 75. Memphis, that'll be for Mark. We've got a Victor Wimbanyama, press proof. Victor Wimbanyama, I'm sure all these add up. Kevin won the Spurs. Norman Powell, press proof. And the LeBron James Marvels. Net Marvels in that pattern. Hunter with the Lakers. It's like commons. And they'll hit you with some rated rookies. Another Victor Wimbanyama. Anna James Najee. It's only one autograph a box. This is an above average box with two. This one on the redemption. 38 out of 99. Charlotte, it's gonna be for Brian. No guesses on this redemption? For bragging rights? No, it's Scoot Anderson for Portland, Joe. Kevin's guessing Scoot. Eric guessing Wemby. Rizion, six out of 49 for the Pelican. I think Pelican's having a nice season. We'll look at the standings and when I'm ripping the next box. Just to get a standings update. Some people think this guy could or should have been drafted a little bit higher. Higher than he was. Jake Loravian. Nino, not sure. Oh, is Wemby... Is Wemby exclusive to Fanatics? Maybe Hakes as well. Are they not on the checklist for autos? I'll be honest with you, I've not studied the checklist at all. Shoe box is not gonna be any of the monster box here. All right. Good luck. It's gonna be a next day autograph. And it's gonna be J-A-L-E-N Jalen Slosson. Not familiar with Jalen Slosson. I do have the draft set up. That's Jalen Huchafino. For my Laker, that's Jalen Pickett. Jalen Wilson. Oh, this is not good. We're all going down the... Your 54th overall pick, Jalen Slosson for the Sacramento Kings. That's gonna be Kevin and the Kings. Your 54th overall pick out of 58. He was your So-Con player of the year and defensive player of the year and two-time first team all So-Con. What conference is that? The Southern Conference. He played for Furman. Didn't they win a couple basketball games in the tournament? There you go, Kevin, that's for you. We're rooting for him. I don't know what he's doing right now. G-League, maybe he's with the Stockton Kings. We got some stats on this guy? Gotta try to big up this guy, Kevin. You're a fan now, right? Let's show me some good G-League stats. He's a 6-7-4, 215. All right, he's getting 34 minutes a night. This is about 11.2 points per game. 6.3 rebounds a game, three assists a game. That's not bad. That's not bad. All right, excuse me a second. I'm not gonna go grab a different container for this, a different vessel. Kind of getting the vibes from this. Pick your team two will be a lot faster. So, fill up pick your team two. Ah, apparently Hawkeyes has next-aid cards that say no autograph on them almost at times. Once, once all that licensing stuff is all figured out. Yeah, it's kind of like the Peacock exclusive game, yeah. Yeah. Maybe there'll be a lot of future update sets, Adam, with, which would actually make sense. That would soften the blow a little bit. Get update cards in future, future basketball sets. Next box, good luck. Oh, I forgot to go through the standings. I'll do that next box. I feel like the autograph pops early on this side, right? I just maybe started with the other side. All right, maybe not. Give it to me. There it is. Maybe I should start with the right side first. All right, fill up Petshisev for Jeff and the Sixers. 94 out of 99. Wait, Sixers? No, Kings. Sorry, it must have been traded. Kings. Sorry, Jeff, that's gonna go to Kevin instead. Well, hopefully that boosts the value of the non-autoed cards of guys like Jaime Hawkeyes. If we find like a low-numbered card, I think that'd be really nice. Here's Andre Jackson, 92 out of 149. There's a strong, strong delicious smell of pizza wafting into my nose, ladies and gentlemen. Activating the hunger signals. I think our customer Rob, Rob W, if you're listening, big thanks, because I think they got us some zah. Nice, thank you, Rob. If you're listening, appreciate you. Got a Devin Booker die cut, seven out of 75. He had a couple 50-point games not too long ago. Sun's team starting to click a little bit. That's gonna go to Hunter with him and Kevin Durant, Bradley Beale. There's Bradley Beale, he's healthy. All right, another Victor Wimben-Yama and a Brandon Miller, Charlotte, it's gonna be for Brian. Oh man, we would love some good New Jersey pizza, but it would take a while. Um, I don't know who I'm on tonight. I think I'm on the Spurs tonight, the Bucks. I don't have to look at my list. But Adam Pizza kind of keeps, right? I mean, if we put it into a container, it reheats all right. It's a good reheating sort of food. There's Westbrook to 149, Clipper is also playing some good basketball. Lamello, crunch time to 299, nice. Went healthy. Pretty good. Brian is Charlotte. Yeah, my limited time in that part of the world, New Jersey, New York. I feel like even the, I feel like even the bad pizza, right, is still good. There's Moses Moody, should be numbered. Kind of hard to see that stamp right there, but it says 11 out of 99. I'm not sure if I'm gonna catch that in the light. Oh, maybe there it is. 11 out of 99. Cold pizza, not too bad either. Golden State Joe with Moses Moody. Unleashed, Kevin Durant. Nick Smith Jr. 66 out of 99. Either way you turn it, 66 out of 99. That is Hornets that's gonna be for Brian. The Seward Thompson, Pistons for Chris, Derek Lively for Dallas, that's gonna be for Joe. Couple different Lucas right there as well. All card ship, two more box to go and we'll do a little recap. Get it from that place. Ooh, is that place good? The place where Tommy DeVito is signing or finally agreed to sign. Let's get a quick standings update. It's very good. Oh, okay. You can walk there. Did you go see Tommy DeVito? Pricy, but good. They're throwing, what, $10,000 at Tommy DeVito. I guess that's where the money's going. Celtics are leading the East by three and a half games. Bucks are right behind him. And Sixers, Knicks, Knicks are having a good season. Kaz having a good season. Pacers, play-in spots. Miami, Orlando, the Bulls and the Hawks. Outside looking in would be the Nets and Raptors. I think Hornets, Wizards and Pistons are not gonna be sniffing the play-in spots. Did not, but you got a pizza there a couple weeks ago. You got a couple of peas still in the freezer. Waiting for that, at an opportune moment. In case of emergency. Toasty in the studio here with the studio lights. Slightly warmer temperatures today in Hermosa Beach, California. Oh, that's how I'm gonna do this side first, right? The auto pops early. Grace and Alan, three point overs are easy money eventually. Get into the prop space as much, but maybe once the NFL season is over, might have to get into it. Here's a Jaime Jaquez for Adam and the Heat, and here's one of those no autograph things that Adam was talking about a little bit earlier. That's Grady Dick. This Dick is gonna go to Pat and the Raptors. He's actually supposed to be pretty good. I saw him in Summer League last year, along with Wemby, among others. Are those pretty rare? Yeah, I don't know what the, are these troll cards? Are they trolling Grady? Are they saying he didn't wanna sign? I mean, they went so hard to print the cards. Maybe they were like, well, what are they gonna do with these? I guess we better just put them in the set. Amen, Thompson, for the Rockets. That's gonna go to Brian. Got another Wemba and Yama. I wanna see some parallels, some number of Wemba and Yamas. It'll be for Kevin, right, Kev? Out of 25, something like that, would be nice. Still a ton of cards left, so that hope is still alive. Scoot for Portland. That's who Wemby's playing tonight. Wemby will be hosting Scoot, Portland. Portland's one of those teams where they got a lot of youngsters on that team. You know, that, you know, a couple more players, a little bit more seasoning from those youngsters and they could really unlock a nice team. There's a Seward Thompson, Detroit. And we got a Seward Thompson autograph, nice. 66 out of 99. That little sumburst pattern in the background. Look at nice Chris with Detroit. Nice. Was he drafted ahead of his brother or was it the other way around? Amen was drafted first, a Seward was drafted fifth. Nice. And we got a Steven Adams Blue 31 out of 49. There's another base Wemby Nyama. Mike Conley to 149, that'll be for Minnesota. It's gonna be for Pat. Here's a nice Donovan Mitchell net marvels. Some rumblings that, some wild speculation that Laker's gonna try to get Donovan Mitchell, but I don't see why. I don't think they have the assets for that. There could be some optimistic Lakers fans. Delusional Lakers fans. They're looking to make some moves in the trade market. Dejanta Murray, he might be the most realistic candidate. Maybe some defense and Bruce Brown, that'd be nice. Lakers were originally targeting him in the off season, but we've got priced out a little bit. There's James Wiseman. 50 out of 75, die cut for Chris in Detroit. I'll also get that a Seward Thompson, including any ones that I may have missed. Shuffling through these cards here. There's Derek Lively for Dallas, Joe. And the last box coming up. All right, fifth and final box. Good luck everybody. Second half in the store right now. Jasperyscasebreaks.com. Check it out. Brand new release just dropped today. Got 100 Tyson, press proof to 199 for Denver. That will be for Adam. Unleash, Shacen, Tatum, this is numbered. Three out of 10, nice low number on that. I was waiting for something like that. I think there's Goldfoil on the Daunras logo on the top left. Check that Joe with the Celtics. Very nice. Quick look at the West. Timberwolves, Thunder, Nuggets, Clippers, Sons, Pelicans, playoff spots, one through six. In the play-in spots, Kings, Mavs, Lakers, and Jazz. And then Rockets are on the outside looking in. As are the Warriors. Only have 19 wins. Wonder if they'll be, are they gonna try to do something in the trade deadline? Trade deadline's coming up. A nice Derek Lively autograph for Dallas. That's gonna be for Joe. There you go, Joe. Looking up some stats for you here. I think he's having a nice season. Yeah, Derek Lively, he's starting. He's getting about 25 minutes a night. Almost nine points a game. About almost eight rebounds a game. An assist a game. And here's where he's helping out. 1.4 blocks a game. And that's a big man. Right, I think he spaces out that team nicely. That was a good draft. There's Evan Mobley to 1.49. Derek Lively was your 12th overall pick. Having a pretty solid rookie campaign. Brandon Miller, got a net marvel Steph Curry, Tim Hardaway Jr., blue sunburst to 49. And rated rookie, Victor Wemmianna. Purple Unleashed Joe L.M. Bede, not numbered. And the next stack here, Scoot Henderson Retro Series. Press proof for Portland, that's gonna be for Joe. And Bones Highland to 1.49. And Jason Tatum, Bones Highland going to the Clippers. That'll be for Kevin. Asur for Chris and the Pistons and Joe with Dallas. And there you are, the Twins, the Thompson Twins. Hold me now, warm my heart. Stay with me, let love and start. I had a picture, oh, oh, oh. Another Derek Lively this time to 49. Joe and the Dallas Mavericks. Another Victor Wemmianna did not see any numbered ones Kevin, but a decent stack of rated rookie cards and hardwood masters inserts going your way. They're white press proof. And Keontae George to close things out. There you go, nice break. Quick little recap. A lot of Wembe's that Tatum was out of 10. The Noah Hattograph Grady Dick. Got a Jalen Slosson Redemption that's gonna go to Sacramento, right? I gotta have to tag that. Some scoot, that nice scoot, Henderson to 149. And of course, Derek Lively and Asur Thompson autographs were pretty strong as well. There you have it, boys and girls. I'm Joe for jaspyscasebreaks.com. Thanks for watching. Thanks for breaking with me. I'll see you next time for the next basketball break. Bye-bye.
