2003 Ultimate Collection Limited LeBron James ROOKIE PATCH AUTO /25 #127 BGS 9 Feb 16 Written By Crista Moreno In 2003, the Cavs used their #1 pick to select high school phenom LeBron James. Even though he had not played a day of college basketball, everyone knew he was going to rank among the best basketball players ever. Over the past 18 NBA seasons, LeBron has solidified his reputation and become a legend for his basketball IQ and domination in Cleveland, Miami, and LA. We remember the first time we saw him play in person--how he stood out on the court and moved faster and with more ease than we have ever seen someone move at his size. His coordination for someone his height was unlike anything we had seen. The monster dunker deserves a monster card--and this is it: Upper Deck’s pièce de résistance. The offered 2003-04 Ultimate Collection Limited LeBron James RPA is encased in a BGS 9 holder, ranking among the highest graded in existence. Only 25 of these ever saw the light of day and currently there are only six Beckett examples which grade higher—incredibly scarcity for one of the most desired RPAs in the industry. This example boasts outstanding preservation throughout with 9 centering, 8.5 corners, 9 edges, and 9.5 surfaces. Fortunately the Beckett case protects the on-card autograph which has been perfectly penned in deep blue-sharpie and fully upholds the lofty pristine assessment. Furthermore, a clean white Cavaliers patch is embedded within which further adds to this card's incredible beauty. As LeBron winds down his career, more and more fans and card investors are starting to fully appreciate his career. Since the NBA held its first event on November 1, 1946, many sports analysts argue that LeBron is the best player to have ever played the game. LeBron may win yet another title this year. Regardless, his legacy on and off the court is cemented. He will be remembered as one of the most talented athletes we ever saw play a sport. We expect his cards will continue to be coveted among investors for decades to come. LeBron is a big-time player and this card is for a big-time investor. Crista Moreno
