2025-26 Topps NBA Hoops Kon Knueppel Bounce House Foil
Kon Knueppel's 2025-26 Topps NBA Hoops Bounce House Foil (#BH-19) is a hobby-exclusive rookie insert for the fourth overall pick of the 2025 NBA Draft — and the backstory makes this card worth chasing on its own merits.
Bounce House is one of the most visually arresting inserts in the 2025-26 Hoops release: a glitter-burst design straight out of the 1990s, with the player surrounded by a shimmering pattern and the insert name spelled out in towering, multi-colored balloon letters. The Foil parallel cranks the eye appeal even further, shifting the entire card under light. This is a hobby-only insert — not available in any retail configuration — which naturally keeps supply tighter than base-parallel collectors expect.
Knueppel earned this card the hard way. The Milwaukee native out of Duke broke the NBA's rookie record for made 3-pointers, shooting 42.5% from deep on nearly eight attempts per game across all 81 regular-season contests. He finished the year averaging 18.5 points, 5.3 rebounds, and 3.4 assists while nearing 50/40/90 efficiency — good enough for NBA All-Rookie First Team honors and a runner-up finish to former Duke teammate Cooper Flagg in Rookie of the Year voting. With LaMelo Ball now dealt to Minnesota, the Hornets are actively building their franchise around Knueppel — his card market reflects that trajectory, with the standard Bounce House Pixel Burst raw copy hitting $27 in recent sales and trending upward.
