Dive Headfirst into Panini’s Crown Royale Basketball

As summer approaches and the release of Panini’s Crown Royale Basketball draws near, it’s time for one thing. That’s right: a pool party!

In attendance will be the very stars that card collectors can pull from this release, from young rookies to established veterans to retired legends. So, slap on some sunscreen, grab your towel and take a dip in Crown Royale’s pool.

Lounging around the deck and in our new sets such as Base Royalty, Treasured Autographs and Noblemen, you’ll find some legends.  Soaking up the sun — much like the accolades they won — Magic Johnson and Larry Bird put their rivalry behind them to enjoy the outdoors together.

Over by the grill, and inside the same packs as their predecessors, you can spot a couple of the league’s most electrifying point guards. Doing most of the cooking is Stephen Curry, of course — he is a chef, after all. Alongside him is the high-flying Ja Morant, slinging hamburgers and hot dogs with the same jaw-dropping accuracy as his passes on the hardwood.

Rounding out our tour of the pool is an outstanding rookie class. Embracing their youth and enjoying themselves after their debut campaigns, they’re in the water as well as the brand-new Royal Rookie Showcase set. Oh, and we could never forget the Rookie Silhouettes set either.

There is a plethora of standout youngsters to keep an eye out for in this release, but this upcoming quartet really makes a splash.

There’s Amen and Ausar Thompson, who are in the shallow end doing what brothers do best: horse-playing around. Meanwhile, Dereck Lively II and Cason Wallace are seeing who can outdo each other with cool tricks off the diving board. All four find the surface in Crown Royale Basketball.

As the sun dips on our pool excursion, and these stars call it a day, we hope you enjoyed a relaxing time in the water. The only thing more refreshing would be testing the waters of Panini’s Crown Royale.
