Graded NM-MT+ 8.5 by BGS, with autograph graded “10” by Beckett. Rookie Card. NBA superstar Kevin Durant shines on this desirable Upper Deck Ultimate Collection “Ultimate Rookie Materials” debut-year collectible. Durant, the 2007-08 NBA Rookie of the Year, averaged an outstanding 20.3 points per game in his inaugural campaign. A career scoring average of 27.1 points per game and four NBA scoring titles in his 14-season career have made the former Texas Longhorn one of the most respected players in Association history, with two NBA Finals championships earned with the Golden State Warriors cementing his legacy among basketball’s historic elite. The 2013-2014 NBA Most Valuable Player has contributed a blazing, blue-ink signature to the obverse of this card, directly above a swatch of photo shoot-used material. A statement on the card’s back by Upper Deck attests to the authenticity of the signature, as well as the genuineness of the event-used patch component, and serves as the item’s COA. The card’s BGS condition report: Centering: 10, Corners: 8.5, Edges: 8.5, Surface: 9.5. Near Mint to Mint-plus condition
