Hey Canada! Our vintage NBA Cards made their way onto ESPN's The Jump!
In case you missed out, we released a series of old school basketball cards featuring NBA Finals players ahead of Game 2 and they became an instant hit. Steph Curry, Kawhi Leonard, Kevin Durant and others were all given the 70’s treatment and just two days later, they’re already at more than 26K likes on Instagram. The set apparently made their way to the States and were broken down by host Rachel Nichols, along with former Raptor Vince Carter and NBA champion Stephen Jackson. They had nothing but good things to say about the APA 70s cards.
There are more than just the ones displayed, too. Draymond with a fro? Boogie Cousins with a receading hairline that kind of makes him look like Krusty the Clown? And Kyle Lowry with… a Kenny Powers mullet?!
You’re in for a treat, because basketball isn't the only sport we've covered. We also took our talents to the NHL, where we gave players some seriously gnarly cuts. The muzzy was also a popular choice for players but think we can all agree that 'Sid the Kid' with the Jagr flow takes the cake.
So we’ve crossed off the NBA and NHL now. What other leagues would you like to see given the old school treatment? Let us know @BarDown!
