Rookie Cards

Chris Bosh excelled in the NBA, yet people still question his worth. Because of this, Chris Bosh rookie cards have long maintained lower values. As he enters the Hall of Fame, hobby attention is returning for the former superstar.

During his first years in the league, Bosh was a cornerstone for the Toronto Raptors. However, his hobby status was relatively obscure given how little attention the team receives outside of Canada. This all changed when Bosh, alongside Dwyane Wade and LeBron James, decided to form the "Big Three" as members of the Miami Heat. After an up-and-down first season together, the trio finally achieved the championship that was expected when the group was formed. They followed that up with a dominant 2012-13 campaign that culminated in a second NBA Championship.

Chris Bosh has over 60 rookie cards for collectors to pursue. There are Chris Bosh cards at all price levels including many serial numbered cards and those containing autographs and/or memorabilia.

2003-04 SPx Chris Bosh RC #155 Autographed Jersey #/750

Despite its horrendous design, this card is very popular with collectors. Bosh has only a few autographed jersey rookie cards and as a result, collectors not being able to afford his Exquisite offering are left with minimal choices.
