Carrying over from the debut that saw real-time cards for the 2016 NBA Finals, 2016-17 Panini Instant NBA Basketball looks to the new season with major offseason moments—like retirements, trades or free-agent signings—exclusively through the Panini Online Store. Most notably, Kevin Durant's move to the Golden State Warriors and Tim Duncan's retirement help usher in the new set. It also provides detailed coverage of the regular season, playoffs and NBA Finals.
While the 2016-17 Panini Instant NBA Basketball cards largely follow the same model established by earlier releases in the Panini Instant line, several changes were applied. Parallels numbered to 50 and ten were added for each card at the onset, but most of the later issues came as just base, Blue (#/25) and Black (1/1) versions. There are also limited Autograph parallels for select cards.
Although each 2016-17 Panini Instant NBA Basketball base card is normally only sold for a 24-hour period, the parallels remain up until they all sell.
2016-17 Panini Instant NBA Basketball features the same price points of previous sets with $9.99 for individual base cards and higher amounts for the numbered parallels.
The tab above features the 2016-17 Panini Instant NBA Basketball checklist and it will be regularly updated with new information.

Will come to be a VERY WANTED SET/Issue of cards ,for the Names involved. The timing as well is echoing in an ERA.!. Here we GOOO.
Think this is a GREAT concept. Much more limited than Topps Now Baseball. Would be nice to have more rookie moments, but is a break-through and milestone set. Wish I had started collecting them earlier.
