Help from the board..football and basketball refractors

olb31

I like collecting refractors #'d to 25 or less of the star players, no necessarily the rookies. For example, I just picked up a 2021 bowman chrome orange /25 of Blake snell. I know kind of what to look for and buy for baseball, but not for football and basketball. I picked up two russell wilson's this week 2014 finest and 2021 prizm /25.

However, things have changed in the last 10 years or so. What brand refractors are the ones to have now for the baskets and football? Affordable ones. I picked up the three above for a total of $60. I typically like bowman chrome and finest and occasionally pick up topps chrome.

any help would be appreciated. just not up on all the new brands.

Topps doesn't make Football or Basketball, so you are looking at the Panini Brands until next year or so, when Topps starts again.

Prizm "Silvers" in Football and Basketball are the equivalent of Topps Chrome Refractors. Optic silvers and Select silvers are just a step below Prizm in demand.

You might want to mention in the topic what kind of help you want (for example: What brand/kind of basketball/football refractors should I collect?). That'll get a lot more attention and be far more effective than generic topics like "Help from the board" or "A Question" or "Hey..." or something.
