I'm fairly certain he, Shai Gilgeous Alexander, and Quinndary Weatherspoon were all part of a high school drama club named Tequila Mockingbird.

I am shocked, shocked, you left Matisse Thybulle out, who is clearly the Captain of that quadfecta!

If anyone goes to RenFair weekly, it's a handsome dude named Matisse....

Default **Talen Horton-Tucker**?

Okay... maybe it’s me and I’ve been more out of the loop in basketball then I’d care to admit, but whoooo exactly is a Round 2 Pick 42 ,Talen Horton-Tucker? He has next to no stats from the season. Played a minute or two
A game with a .5 stat here and there..
And WHY are his cards blowing up like crazy? Like up there with highest asking price for rookie this year not named Zion or Ja.
I saw an article where Lebron James said he is going to be great, Anthony Davis saying kind words, Lakers organization saying he is going to do big things...... but I mean this Is LA, and of course your vets are gonna pump up the hell out of their young guys talents. Is the card spike prices all do due just these compliments made toward him? I’ll see 10 card optic lots for $150 everywhere. Or is this just the new “craze” dump guy? This one intrigues me

Had a big preseason game. Lebron hyped him.

Thats all it takes these days (he was very solid in G league last year fwiw)

I bought a optic silver holo but that’ll be all on him
For me right now. Seems wayyyyy too much like an investment on the sellers ends who hoarded this guy to have all these 20 card optic lots all over eBay , and not very likely to be in the odds of good investment turnaround for the buyer. Didn’t this happen with that white guy in philly a few years ago? Korkmaz? Stuff went crazy for
Little over a week then completely died off

This guy having Lebron go to bat for him *may* just be enough to keep his prices somewhat elevated, until he either actually gets minutes and isn’t worth the money, or the lesser likely, gets minutes and it’s realized he’s worth the money, and more

He’s not going to get any regular season minutes. He’s probably going to the G league again this year.

I mean I hope he makes the team
And gets minutes, mostly so I don’t have to feel as stupid dropping $27 on that silver optic holo

Kawhi was asking Wes Matthews about him during the game, so he may have left an impression. Vogel seems to like the kid a lot too. Doesn't justify prices, but I bought a bunch of THT on the 9th, so I'm not complaining.

Did you go in on just a young prospect, or Lakers fan?

Saw the hype from the Lakers camp (Twitter is great for that), and figured he'd get a bunch of minutes in preseason, so it was purely speculative. COMC makes it easy to buy a bunch at once, so I bought around 92 cards that night (mostly Optic/Fanatics and lower-end, but a couple autos as well). Plus, he's in the Hoops Premium Stock sets, so I have 22 more there. Probably a small position compared to some.

He is listed on the 2 deep as Brons backup fwiw. Not sure if it will stay that way

I cashed out on this guy in the bubble so it's not a huge surprise to me he is selling well again. Probably won't get a ton of playing time this year, but will be interesting to watch.

Happy I sold a silver Holo for $70 yesterday. Hope buyer does well on it, but I’m taking the money and running. Was rather surprised that the card had over 400 views and 16 watchers in the little over 5 hours it was listed. It’s crazy out there I guess
