The next generation of sports card collecting has arrived. For fans and collectors who simply can’t get enough of Panini America’s NBA trading card products in their physical form from hobby shops, retail outlets or online auctions, you can now get them in their Facebook form thanks to a unique partnership between Panini America and Deckdaq.

The powerful, entertaining and interactive virtual collecting game launched in December with a special 2013-14 NBA Hoops Basketball collection that includes more than 600 virtual cards and three different virtual albums in which to put them. After installing the free Facebook app, users are given 500 coins with which to begin their virtual collections by “purchasing” one of the three virtual albums and virtual packs of 2013-14 NBA Hoops Basketball.

From there, users can virtually open their packs and place them in their specified slots in the album. Throughout the process, bonus coins are earned, upgraded versions of cards uncovered  and new levels achieved, providing access to exclusive areas of the NBA Hoops Basketball world, including the Marketplace (which offers the opportunity to buy, sell and trade with fellow users), the Arcade and the Battle Arena.

In addition to featuring virtual versions of 2013-14 NBA Hoops’ base cards and Rookie Cards, the collection also includes rare inserts and autograph versions that add significantly more value to users’ overall collections.

  1. Winning this KD Auto Pic is going to be a nightmare, especially when someone owns a sick battle deck and probably most likely spent money on it. To build their deck stronger and faster.

  2. Also its like a one man show, going to own everything. No chance in winning but i still love the app and going to keep playing the best i can and go as far as i can.
    i would love to own a KD Auto Pic. Since i already have his All Star patch card, Face patch card, Gold 7/10 prizm and immaculate quad KD/Kobe patch 4/10
