1991-1992 Upper Deck Basketball High Series

91-92 Upper Deck:  1991-1992 would be the start of a successful run for Mitch Richmond with the Kings after three seasons in Golden State as a member of Run TMC.  Man, could this guy shoot.  He hit 38% of his 3's in his 14-year career.
I've always liked Alvin Robertson and Walter Davis.  Davis is a Hall of Famer and 2X All-NBA who averaged 18.9 points per game across 14 seasons.  Alvin Robertson was a 1X All-NBA, 3X steals champ, Defensive Player of the Year and 6X All-Defensive team selectee in 10 years.  He is also the all-time leader for career steals per game with 2.7.
The High Series backs are the same as the low series 91-92 Upper Deck cards.  The packs contain cards from both series and Jerry West autographs are possible though rare.  I'm a big fan of this set. 
Draft Pick cards are solid, but John Turner only played one season in the NBA.
I like the horizontal cards but I'm not sure Upper Deck did Scott Brooks any favors with this photo.  He looks to be out of control.  Brooks went on to win 521 games as a head coach, most notably with OKC from '08 - '15.
Hersey Hawkins does not look happy by Kevin Johnson's defense in the All-Star Game.  I love All-Star Game cards with actual in game photos.  Hawkins was another amazing shooter who hit 39% of his threes across 13 seasons.

BREAKDOWN:
15 – Total Cards
1 – NBA Draft
1 – All-Star Team
