OG Anunoby Cards: Which One Do You Have?
Last night OG Anunoby tipped in a missed Jalen Brunson three-pointer with 1.2 seconds left, completing the largest comeback in NBA Finals history — a 29-point deficit erased — to seal a 107–106 Knicks win over the Spurs. The man born in Harlesden, London, is now #1 on NBA.com's Finals MVP Ladder, averaging 15.8 points, 10.8 rebounds, and 2.8 assists through Game 4. If an OG card just surfaced in your collection, here's the three-era decoder.
Which Era Is My OG Anunoby Card From?
Every OG Anunoby card falls into one of three eras. The two tells: uniform colour and manufacturer logo.
- Raptors uniform (red/black) + Panini logo — Era 1: 2017-18 through early 2023-24. His true rookie cards live here.
- Knicks uniform (blue/orange) + Panini logo — Era 2: 2024-25 only. Panini's final licensed NBA season.
- Knicks uniform (blue/orange) + Topps logo — Era 3: 2025-26 onward. Topps/Fanatics took the NBA exclusive from October 2025.
What Are His True Rookie Cards?
OG's true RCs are all 2017-18 Panini cards showing him in Toronto red and black. He wasn't traded to New York until 30 December 2023 — there is no Knicks rookie card.
The 2017-18 Panini Prizm #38 and the 2017-18 Panini Donruss Optic #178 Rated Rookie are the two main ones to know — both are among the top movers on card-tracking platforms right now. Snap a photo in CardLoft to confirm exactly which set and version you're holding.
- 2017-18 Panini Prizm #38 OG Anunoby RC — flagship
- 2017-18 Panini Donruss Optic #178 OG Anunoby Rated Rookie — chromium Rated Rookie
- 2017-18 Panini Donruss #178 OG Anunoby Rated Rookies — base set (same number as Optic, different product)
- 2017-18 Panini Prizm Rookie Signatures #22 OG Anunoby — on-card auto
I Have a Knicks Card — Panini or Topps?
Both eras: blue and orange Knicks colours. The manufacturer logo is the only tell.
One number worth memorising: 2025-26 Topps Basketball #15 is OG. Card #19 in the same set is Karl-Anthony Towns — easy to mix up. If you pulled something live, 2025-26 NBA Topps NOW #336 OG Anunoby was issued 11 June 2026 for his Game 4 heroics — still an open-window print.
