Random Wax: 1990-1991 SkyBox Basketball (3 Packs)

90-91 SkyBox:  I've been sharing these three packs at a time for a year and a half, and I finally get to feature the GOAT with the first card.  MJ is the best player I've ever seen play.  He had an intesity to him I've rarely seen in other players.  As great as he was on offense, you didn't want him guarding you because he was just as good on defense.  And he was so freaking smart.  Words don't do him justice in my mind.  Random fact:  In his final season, at age 39, he averaged 20 points per game and played all 82 games.

My all-time favorite player, Dominique.  It was always fun watching him go up against Jordan, but he and the Hawks almost always fell short.  Doesn't diminish the fun it was to watch (in retrospect).  And we have a couple of great shooters in Drazen Petrovic (RIP) and Reggie.

In my mind, Xavier McDaniel was a power forward but he played small forward for the vast majority of his career.  He played big averaging 15 PPG and 6 RPG for his 12-year career,

We love the backs.  Another Reggie in Reggie Theus, my 3rd all-time favorite player.  He had a strong jheri curl game more than appropriate for the time.

Some solid players from back in the day.  Rod Strickland was All-NBA 1X but never made an all-star team.  The 2025-2026 NBA season starts in one week.

Plenty of great guards here.  Lever was a do it all guard who four times in his career averaged 8+ rebounds per game (two of those he averaged over 9 per game).  Ricky Pierce was an all-around guard who was named 6th Man of the Year 2X and was a 1X All-Star selection.  These are always so much fun!
