SHAQUILLE O'NEAL | 1992 HOOPS 442 | PSA GEM MT 10

PSA Graded Card - Certification #114657143 - Grade: GEM MT 10

This is a 1992-93 NBA Hoops Shaquille O'Neal Rookie Card (#442). The card features a color action photograph of Shaquille O'Neal in his white pinstriped Orlando Magic uniform (No. 32) going up for a dunk. "SHAQUILLE O'NEAL" is printed vertically in white text on a gold sidebar along the left. The bottom of the card displays the Orlando Magic logo and 'ROOKIE' in gold block letters. The "NBA Hoops" logo is visible in the bottom left corner. The background captures an in-game moment with another player defending. The card has a white border all the way around. The card shown is graded a PSA 10 (GEM MT) indicating perfect or near-perfect corners, edges, centering, and surface. There are no notable printing technologies beyond standard 1990s glossy finish. Historically, this rookie card is a staple of 1990s basketball collecting, marking Shaquille O'Neal's entry into the NBA. Unique identifiers include the 'ROOKIE' text and gold vertical bar with player name, as well as card number 442, which separates it from later NBA Hoops issues. No autographs, memorabilia, serial numbering or parallel/refractor features are present; this is the standard base rookie.
