Are you really sure it is fake?
Yes, it's a fake and no, it's not a good one. The halftone patterning on the front is completely wrong and the dot pattern on the pink portion on the back of the card is wrong too. Some of the printing on the back is also slightly different and way too dark for this set. The cuts on the right and left edges are completely bogus. They don't look like that on a real 1986 Fleer basketball card although there's a lot of trimmed cards in PSA 10 holders with cuts that look like that, so that can be a confusing issue at times if you don't know what you're looking at.
