Weekly Sports Card Sales Feature Stars Across Three Sports
The latest weekly sports card sales list brings together six different players across basketball, football and soccer, with several of the biggest names in the hobby making an appearance. Anthony Edwards and Luka Doncic claimed the top spot, while Lionel Messi, Kobe Bryant, Tom Brady and Victor Wembanyama also posted major sales over the past seven days.
The list includes a mix of modern stars and all-time greats, along with cards that range from rookie-era issues to premium autograph and memorabilia pieces. Several of the sales came through ALT, while others were completed through Fanatics Weekly, Fanatics Premier and eBay.
No. 5 Lionel Messi 2004-05 Panini Sports Mega Cracks PSA 9
Lionel Messi opened the countdown with a 2004-05 Panini Sports Mega Cracks PSA 9 that sold for $90,000 on Nov. 8, 2026 through Fanatics Weekly. The card carries a PSA 9 population of 57, while PSA 10s stand at 20.
The card shows a young Messi from his F.C. Barcelona days, pictured in a blue and red kit with long hair. It remains one of the most recognizable early Messi cards in the market and continues to draw strong interest from collectors.
Card Ladder notes that the card has also produced major private sales in PSA 10 form over the past couple of years, including two private transactions that reportedly exceeded $1 million, though those sales were not independently verified by the research team. The biggest verified PSA 10 sale listed by Card Ladder came on Sep. 26, 2025, when a copy sold for $960,000 through Fanatics Premier.
No. 4 Kobe Bryant 1997-98 Skybox E-X2001 Jambalaya BGS 9.5
Kobe Bryant followed at No. 4 with a 1997-98 Skybox E-X2001 Jambalaya BGS 9.5 that sold for $120,000 on Nov. 4, 2026 through eBay. The card has a BGS 9.5 population of 28.
The card features Bryant in a bright yellow Lakers uniform against a vivid green and orange background, with the design giving the impression that he is leaping out of the card. It is another strong result for the NBA legend, who had already appeared at the top of a recent weekly sales list after the $4.2 million sale of a 2017 Panini Flawless Logoman Auto 1/1 PSA 9, Auto 10.
Kobe’s continued presence near the top of the market shows the staying power of his most sought-after cards, especially premium inserts and one-of-one pieces that remain highly desirable to collectors.

No. 3 Tom Brady 2000 Donruss Elite Status /10 PSA 9
Tom Brady landed at No. 3 with a 2000 Donruss Elite Status /10 PSA 9 that sold for $126,000 on Nov. 5, 2026 through ALT. The card has a PSA 9 population of 2, with just one PSA 10 in the population report.
The card is a standout early Brady issue and shows him in his Michigan Wolverines uniform wearing No. 10. With the ultra-low population and the appeal of Brady’s pre-NFL cards, it is the type of piece that continues to command attention whenever it reaches the market.
Brady also made headlines recently in Foxborough, Mass., where he was in the announcers booth for the New England Patriots' 45-27 loss to the Green Bay Packers on Nov. 8, 2026. On the card market, however, Brady had a much better week, as he also swept the top NFL football card sales list in the most recent weekly rankings.
No. 2 Victor Wembanyama 2023 Panini Flawless Dual Patch Gold PSA 10
Victor Wembanyama came in at No. 2 with a 2023 Panini Flawless Dual Patch Gold PSA 10 that sold for $190,170 on Nov. 5, 2026 through ALT. The card has a PSA 10 population of 2.
The sale came one day after Wembanyama delivered one of the most dominant performances of his young career against the Dallas Mavericks, scoring 52 points with eight blocks and two dozen rebounds on Nov. 4, 2026. That performance and the card sale combined to make it a memorable week for the Spurs star.
Premium Wembanyama cards have remained a major focus for collectors, especially high-end Flawless issues that feature low populations and strong visual appeal.
No. 1 Anthony Edwards and Luka Doncic 2023 Panini Immaculate Collection Dual Logoman Auto
The top sale of the week belonged to a 2023 Panini Immaculate Collection Dual Logoman Auto featuring Anthony Edwards and Luka Doncic, which sold for $426,000 on Nov. 5, 2026 through ALT. The card is a one-of-one and brings together two of the NBA’s most popular current stars on a single premium piece.
The card shows Edwards and Doncic each pictured behind their NBA Logoman, with blue-ink autographs below. It is the kind of high-end dual autograph memorabilia card that tends to stand out immediately in the marketplace, especially when it combines two elite players on a one-of-one format.
Edwards and Doncic have both been among the most closely watched names in modern basketball collecting, and this sale reflects the continued demand for top-tier cards that pair star power with premium memorabilia and autograph content.
What Stood Out From This Week's Market
This week’s top five featured a wide range of card types, from early soccer and football rookies to high-end basketball inserts, dual autographs and one-of-one memorabilia cards. The list also highlighted how strong the market remains for both established legends and current stars.
Messi, Kobe Bryant and Tom Brady continue to anchor the upper end of the hobby with cards that have long-term collector appeal, while Wembanyama, Edwards and Doncic show how quickly modern premium cards can climb when a player’s performance and market momentum align.
With sales spread across multiple platforms and several cards carrying extremely low populations, the week offered another snapshot of how scarcity, eye appeal and star power continue to drive the sports card market.
