Random Wax: 2023-2024 Hoops Winter Holiday Blaster

23-24 Winter Basketball:  Happy Thanksgiving!  No denying Trae Young's talent. He's averaged 25 PPG and almost 10 APG for his career.   The Hawks have made one appearance in the Eastern Conference Finals with Young leading the charge.  Still hoping they can get things figured out this year and make a good run in the playoffs.
2023-2024 Hoops is a solid design and we get a Winter variation as seen here.  All three of these guys are on new teams - Warriors, Spurs, 76ers - respectively.  The Spurs have taken their game to a new level.
Speaking of the Spurs, the largest reason for their success is Wemby.  He's having a career best year and again is the early season favorite to be the Defensive Player of the Year.
We need a better background on these Rookie Greetings cards but the snowflakes really do help the look.
A couple of Skyview inserts and the perplexing Pure Players insert.  No complaints about my pull on these though Ja has had a rough start to his season.
All three of these are really good young players in the league.  The Murphy III and Green photos are nice.
More youngsters including a Rookie Sweaters Relic.  That Coulibaly Arriving Now is a Holo Parallel.
Great to see Nikola Jokic on this Dynamos insert.
We'll end it with Hoops Tribute that includes another Wemby sighting and a retired great.  I really liked my pull in this blaster.  Everybody have a great holiday!
