1995 NBA HOOPS Basketball Cards,
Wax Pack

Unopened pack of NBA Trading Cards, original from 1995 with a chance of rare Grant Hill Tribute Cards. The 1995/96 season was the NBA’s 50th anniversary season. However, due to the first NBA lockout in history, it was not celebrated until a year later. The Toronto Raptors and Vancouver Grizzlies were added to the NBA as 28th and 29th franchise and became the NBA’s first Canadian teams since the 1946/47 Toronto Huskies, that only existed one single year, disbanded. The Chicago Bulls finished the regular season and playoffs 87-13 overall, setting an all-time combined record that would only be beaten by the 2015/16 Golden State Warriors. Needless to say, the Bulls also won the NBA Finals. Their latest victims were the Seattle SuperSonics with Gary Payton and Detlef Schrempf. For more information see below.
