Welcome to the first episode of our "FIVE" - Five players we are targeting during the NBA offseason in Basketball Cards, rookies, autos, and grails. Each player in this series is already playing at an All-Star level, during the first few years of his NBA career, for a team that has already made some noise in the playoffs. Gary welcomes you back with a familiar name - a point guard who should have been an Eastern Conference All-Star, whose pop counts and RPA's are fewer and harder to find. Playing in the largest market in the league, this clutch, unstoppable scorer still has a lot of upside value for collectors and investors in today's Basketball Card hobby.
