Product Configuration:
- 6 Cards per Box
Product Summary:
Like past years, 2020-21 Panini Contenders Optic Basketball takes the season’s main Contenders release and gives it a chromium makeover. So it’s still rooted in the autograph chase but there’s additional colors to go along with it.
Contenders Optic does take a more premium approach with its configuration as well. Hobby boxes have a single pack of six cards. Of those, one’s an autograph, two are inserts and two are parallels. That leaves space for a single regular base card.
The main base set falls under the Season Ticket banner, spotlighting NBA veterans. The general layout and design are the same as 2020-21 Panini Contenders Basketball but the change in stock makes for a very different feel. It’s like comparing Donruss and Donruss Optic or Topps and Topps Chrome.
Parallels take on a variety of colors including Silver, Red, Blue (/99), Orange (/49), Green Pulsar (/25), Gold (/10) and Gold Vinyl (1/1). Black Pandora parallels might not be serial numbered but, according to Panini, they are still tough short prints.
