I remember these UD cards back in the day... such a good looking set.
They weren't NBA, but Press Pass actually had game-used jerseys before UD in their college basketball product. Here's a card I pulled from a pack fifteen years ago:

Definitely the first set, wish the Game Used of today were like that. Bigger swatch, harder to pull, and the design actually looks like effort was put into it, unlike like all the base parallel GUs of today.

Wow what an amazing set!!!!! Beautiful stuff.
Yep they were the first GU stuff and back then were fetching HUGE prices!!!
Here's an old beckett mag scan
epic cards, and hard to find like they should be imo.
only question on that auction is why couldn't they take better photos, and also would like to see more info on the Grant Hill one, not sure if that patch is too good to be true!

I know in the mid to late 90s, Autographs and Game Used cards were actually worth something and a lot harder to pull from boxes. I could be wrong, but I think this is the first Game Used Jersey cards ever produced for NBA cards? These have held up really good in book value compared to other Game Used cards today.
