Jordan/Kobe supply and demand

It’s a topic that I have not seen anyone discussing, while there is a lot of talks about the supply of the current NBA rookies/superstars, and how the demand is not going to be able to keep up with it.

At the same time no one talks about the fact that Jordan NBA cards have not been produced since 2009-10 and also no Kobe cards since 2019-20, and how it can lead to lower supply than demand for these players if nothing changes. It seems to be that it will likely continue this way for unknown period (maybe Fanatics will be able to get MJ in their products by 2026 if they acquire upper deck, Panini definitely not planning to do that and with Kobe it’s even more difficult).

Would be interesting to hear your take on it, are you expecting to see more LA Kobe and Bulls MJ cards produced in the near future? And if we never see any Kobe / MJ nba cards produced ever again, then how it will impact the demand/supply side (less rare cards becoming more desired?)
