“ Late 90s basketball cards were the best. Seems like all the companies gave a strong effort, and it was just before the super-expensive stuff started to pour in. Great photo, by the way. ” -switzr1

Rasheed Wallace bought a case of Heinikin behind me once at a Safeway in Lake Oswego, Oregon around this time.  Got to say didnt expect him to be a heinikin man.  
Also his wife, Fatima, always shopped at my kids footlocker where i worked in college.... 

 

Just thought i would name drop

Feels like the front should really be the back.

The background is there, but the card is mirror foil and this scan is extra dark so it doesn't show. Mirror foil is exceedingly hard to pull a decent scan from.

VERY slow trading due to health problems. Not transferrable so safe to trade with, just moving is painful and can't always access the cards.

It's a good card, both sides of this card played hard. ('Sheed would often repeat the mantra "Good game, both teams played hard" instead of answering questions about the technical fouls he picked up, or whatever.) 

Then there's the famous Sheed line: Ball Don't Lie!
