Which AJ Dybantsa card is the real rookie card

Topps holds the NBA license, so his rookie cards will be Topps products in 2026-27; the flagship set had not released as of mid-October 2026. He signed an exclusive multi-year NIL trading card and memorabilia deal with Topps's parent company in July 2025. His college cards in 2025-26 Bowman (Paper Prospects BPP-1, Chrome Prospects BCP-1) carry the 1st Bowman logo per Checklist Insider and are prospect cards, not RCs. Topps NOW draft-night cards from June 2026 introduced Topps' new NBA RC logo.

How PSA, CGC and Beckett grade

PSA

Top grades:: Gem Mint 10, then Mint 9 and NM-MT 8.
Half grades:: 1.5 through 8.5 since February 2008; there is no PSA 9.5.

Half grades:: Yes, from Fair 1.5 up to Mint+ 9.5.

How to identify your AJ Dybantsa card and check what it sold for

Find the year and maker on the back of your AJ Dybantsa card, and the card number, usually top or bottom on the back.
Check the front and back for a serial number (for example 23/99) and for a colored or patterned finish: those mark a parallel, which is a different card from the base version.
Look for the RC logo or the word Rookie. A card from before the first pro season, such as a Bowman 1st or a college card, is a prospect card, not a rookie card.
Note any grade on the slab label (PSA, BGS, SGC, CGC). A raw card and a graded one are different listings.
Search sold listings for that exact year, set, number, parallel and grade. What a card sold for is a better guide than any asking price.

Check AJ Dybantsa rookie cards in eBay's sold listings or eBay's price guide for that exact card.
