Topps unveils rare LeBron, Curry, Durant-signed Paris Olympics card

As rare as it was for LeBron James, Stephen Curry and Kevin Durant to team up for a handful of games this summer, now there is a collectable commemorating their time together at the Paris Olympics that’s even rarer.

James, Curry and Durant will all autograph a 1-of-1 Topps trading card featuring the gold-medal-winning trio in their red, white and blue Team USA uniforms that will be sent to a customer at random who purchases the stars’ base card from the company.

The redemption card will be sent to the winner within 10 days of the close of the sale, according to a Topps spokesperson.

The base card featuring James, Curry and Durant retails for $11.99.

In recent years, cards featuring James’ autograph accompanied by the signatures of Hall of Famers such as Michael Jordan or Kobe Bryant have sold at auction for tens of thousands of dollars.
