At age 39, LeBron James had his best season in the last five years, playing in 71 games (the first time he's played in 70 or more games since 2017-18), averaging 25.7 points, 7.3 rebounds, 8.3 assists and 1.3 steals, while shooting 54% from the field and a career high 41% from three point range.

Ridiculous. His card market has settled since the 2020 boom and consequent 2021 spike, but now that the Lakers have been out of the playoffs, many of LeBron's cards are down enough to profit on an already graded flip.

But, unlike most players, LeBron's cards sell very well in all grades for all grading companies, and even non-PSA 10s have upside. We've used our formula-based sports card rankings to put together a $1k budget builder to show you the top five ways to spend $1k on LeBron cards now and profit in October 2024.
