NBA Top Shot latest pack drop is extremely expensive (UPDATE)
We’ve seen NBA Top Shot pack drops that have been for $99 (a “premium” drop) and those celebrating All-Star weekend for just $14.
(Also, if you have no idea what we’re talking about here, NBA Top Shot is the biggest NFT fad in sports right now, and fans continue to spend money on official highlights from the league. Here’s a Top Shot explainer to help!)
Now, there’s a new pack drop on Thursday afternoon: it’s 36,378 packs of “rare” moments from the 2021 All-Star game. Each pack will have seven moments (which includes one from the ASG), one per collector and it’ll cost … $229.
Yow. Also in the fine print? You must have at least three moments before joining the drop.
