The Card: 2003-04 Upper Deck Exquisite LeBron James RC Auto Patch #78 /99
The first showdown between LeBron James and Lonzo Ball was all King James. Not only did the Cavs down the Lakers, but James notched a triple-double, the 59th of his career. This ties him with Larry Bird for sixth all-time.
The 2003-04 Upper Deck Exquisite LeBron James is his top Rookie Card. And it’s not even that close. It is a symbol of the new super premium era it helped usher in. Limited to just 99 copies, it has both an on-card autograph and a patch swatch to boot. Looking at the bigger picture, it’s probably the most iconic sports card to come along since the 1989 Upper Deck Ken Griffey Jr.
