What happened with Lebron James Topps Chrome RCs?

This card is on my list since a while, my plan was to buy a PSA10 about a month ago, but I didn’t have the money at the time. BGS 9.5 was selling for 1K-ish, and PSA10 for 2K-ish. They were selling for these prices even 2 weeks ago

Finally I have the money and I was just about to pull the trigger, and I just saw the recent prices and I don’t want to believe my eyes:
BGS8.5 $1,3K
BGS 9.5 $2-2,4K
PSA10 $3,775

What?!

Do you have any idea what happened in the past 2 weeks, that I’ve missed? Did Lebron win another Championship, or what? I’m kinda new to the hobby, but never thought this card is a sleeper which can double in value in about 10 days without anything happening with Lebron or the Lakers. Maybe Kobe’s death is causing this? Or just a classic pum&dump? I would be really curious what you think?

I’m very sad as this card was really on my bucketlist. But no way to pay $4K for it.

Do you see any chance to dip anytime in the near future ir is this another boat I’ve just missed???
