What's Buzz-worthy: My fourth blaster of this one delivered differently than others with some strong parallels this time, some notable rookie and veteran appearances and a good mix that gets an A+ mark (yes, again) thanks to the Pink Coby White, which pays for at least a couple boxes at SRP (how I found them) as well as some other notables. I also had a number of cards here that were identical to other blasters -- these can be streaky -- but it wasn't bad as Ja Morant was one of those players ... and my Brandon Clarke pile-up got bigger here with four more RCs for him. (I'm pulling him and Morant perhaps more than others though I have yet to get all of the boxes I've busted all in one spot. And I still have five, yes five, blasters waiting on future Buzz Breaks here ... that's how much I like the variety found here. For more thoughts, check out my other breaks.

Product Grade: A
Box Grade: A+ (Coby White pink pays for at least a couple boxes at SRP)
