“ The cheapest, least desirable cards ever produced. I bought a box in '97 and every, EVERY, card had a ding, scrape or defect. Some were stuck together. Not a surprise coming from Upper Deck. ” -hamrlik22

“ Love this set. Don't really remember Sean Higgins though. ” -tenlbpain

“ Nice card... Two different pictures on the front and back. The only downside for me is the vertical name/information on the front. In that the info is in German makes the card even nicer. ” -Rick Gentry

“ There needs to be an update on the scan because I can't read anything on the back besides some of the bio stats up top. ” -Theron_Nett

“ Terrible scan. University Michigan guy who helped win the national championship in 1989. So I love him for that. However, an arrogant jerk. First committed to UCLA then Michigan. Big scandal at the time. Then went pro after 3 years. As a senior, could have led the Big 10 in scoring--he would have been U of M's only pure shooter on the team. Could have really developed his game. But decided he was too good for college. 6 teams in 8 years in the NBA plus time in Greece and Turkey. Unrealized potential. Hope he is doing well. ” -cjjt

I think this is the set that got me into collecting basketball cards when I was a kid; maybe 8 or 9. My dad bought me a box on his way back from a business trip and I never looked back. It’s certainly not the most valuable set, but it definitely holds the most memories for me.

My absolute favorite set of all time and the first set I ever completed.  So much nostalgia opening these packs as a kid.

I remember Sean Higgins as a Mr Irrelevant in the NBA draft.  One of those guys that left earlier than he should.  Had a decent career, but I think he could have had an easier road if he had waited another year before going pro.
