2025 26 Cedric Coward Orange Auto /50

Cedric Coward — 2025-26 Collector Station Orange Auto /50 | Memphis Grizzlies RC

This is one of the most compelling rookie autos of the 2025-26 NBA season, and the numbers back it up. Cedric Coward — the No. 11 overall pick in the 2025 NBA Draft — delivered one of the most quietly dominant rookie campaigns in recent memory. The Memphis Grizzlies traded up to land him, and he repaid that trust immediately: 13.6 points, 5.9 rebounds, and 2.8 assists per game across 62 appearances (47 starts), shooting 47.1% from the field. His reward? A spot on the NBA All-Rookie First Team and a top-5 finish in Rookie of the Year voting — outperforming every player drafted outside the top 4.

• Set: 2025-26 Collector Station

The backstory only adds to the equity. Coward's rise from Division III Willamette to lottery pick is one of the hobby's great underdog narratives — and collectors who chased his certified rookie paper early have already watched the market move. With a signed two-year deal locked in Memphis alongside Ja Morant and Jaren Jackson Jr., Coward's upside in both the NBA and the hobby is real and building. At a print run of just 50, this Cedric Coward Orange Auto RC from 2025-26 Collector Station is the kind of serial-numbered rookie signature that gets harder to find as the player's reputation grows.
