Basketball collecting guide
Jayson Tatum2017-18 Panini Prizm #16 · Silver Prizm
The base, Silver and Green entries for Tatum #16 give a collector three distinct versions to compare.
Boston selected Tatum third in the 2017 draft. For collectors building a run of Celtics rookies, Prizm #16 offers a choice between collecting one version for the player photograph and assembling several finishes. Make that choice before a seller’s use of “Prizm rookie” determines which prices you see.
Sort #16 by variety
PSA lists ordinary #16, Silver Prizm #16 and Green Prizm #16 separately. Begin with the number on the reverse, then read the variety on the holder and compare the finish in light that shows it clearly. If a listing leaves the variety unresolved, save it for identification rather than including it among Silver price comparisons. 1 2
The player behind the card
Tatum started all 80 games he played as a Boston rookie. That immediate role helps distinguish the first Celtics chapter on Prizm #16 from a later card chosen for an individual scoring milestone. 5 6

Choose which premium matters
PSA’s captured price guide gives PSA 9 references of $60 for the ordinary card, $380 for Silver and $600+ for Green. All three amounts come from PSA’s catalog. They illustrate why a collector who wants Silver for its finish must compare Silver with Silver, while a collector who wants a representative rookie can evaluate the base issue on its own terms. 1
Pick a copy you can examine
For a Silver to display, look for a clear, evenly framed image and inspect the surface at more than one light angle. Decide whether a mark would still catch your eye in normal display light. If you plan to upgrade later, retain the card and holder photographs with the exact sale description so the next comparison starts from the copy you actually own. 1 3
