Top 5 Shai Gilgeous-Alexander Card Sales of All-Time

Shai Gilgeous-Alexander’s ascent from underrated rookie to MVP candidate has electrified the NBA — and the hobby market has followed suit. As the face of the Oklahoma City Thunder’s resurgence, SGA has become one of the most chased modern players in the card world. These are his top 5 card sales to date — along with collector-driven insights into why each one sold for so much.

1. 2018 National Treasures Rookie Logoman Autograph 1/1

Price: $228,000 (3/16/23)

This is the crown jewel of all Shai cards — the true Logoman RPA one-of-one from National Treasures. National Treasures is considered the premier rookie product in basketball, and this card features the full NBA Logoman patch, on-card autograph, and one-of-a-kind status. Collectors view it as the ultimate combination of brand, rarity, and visual appeal. With Shai’s rapid rise into superstardom, owning this card is essentially betting on him being a generational Hall of Famer.

2. 2018 Panini Prizm Black Prizm 1/1

Price: $196,420 (3/2/24)

Prizm is the flagship chromium brand of modern basketball cards, and the Black 1/1 parallel is the most iconic chase card of them all. This sale marks the highest ever for an SGA Prizm, and it speaks volumes about his mainstream appeal. No autographs or patches here — just pure rarity, brand power, and visual perfection. Prizm Black 1/1s are as grail-level as it gets for collectors who want the cleanest, most iconic rookie parallel.

3. 2018 National Treasures Gold Rookie Patch Auto /10

Price: $180,000 (4/24/25)

The Gold /10 variation of Shai’s National Treasures RPA brings together elite scarcity and a stunning gold-bordered design. While not a one-of-one, this card is often considered just one tier below the Logoman. With a bold auto, premium patch window, and the prestige of the NT brand, this sale signals long-term collector confidence. Graded or raw, this card consistently draws elite bidding.

4. 2018 Panini Prizm Gold Prizm /10

Price: $152,501 (3/29/25)

Gold Prizms /10 are among the most sought-after parallels in the hobby. They sit at the perfect intersection of scarcity and visibility. Shai’s Prizm Gold rookie in PSA 10 condition is treated as a “liquid grail” — highly desirable and easily understood by casual and serious collectors alike. As his legend grows, this card remains one of the most instantly recognizable and tradable assets in the SGA market.

5. 2018 National Treasures Emerald Rookie Patch Auto /5

Price: $128,100 (4/26/25)

The Emerald /5 variation is one of the rarest versions of Shai’s core NT RPAs. The green foil, low serial number, and high-quality patches often featured on this parallel give it standout appeal among serious collectors. Though it may fly under the radar compared to the Logoman or Gold /10, this card is a cornerstone for anyone building a complete NT Shai collection.

Final Thoughts

Shai Gilgeous-Alexander has officially entered hobby royalty. Whether it’s a 1/1 Logoman, a shimmering Gold Prizm, or a low-numbered NT RPA, collectors are now treating his best cards like long-term investments. As the Thunder continue to rise and Shai solidifies his place in the league’s elite, don’t be surprised if we see a $500K+ Shai sale in the near future.
