About this card

LeBron James’s 2025–26 Topps Basketball card is number 150 in that release. This is Topps’ paper-stock flagship set, and the 2025-26 release marks Topps’ return to licensed NBA cards after more than a decade.

LeBron James’s rookie-labeled entry in this catalog is the 2003–04 Topps Chrome Basketball #111, so this later issue carries no rookie label.

How to identify it

Paper base cards like this were printed in large numbers, so condition and the exact edition matter most. Other versions of the same player from the same year usually carry different numbers, so confirm the brand printed on the card.

The issue stays 2025–26 · Topps Basketball. These are research checks, not a condition assessment of a specimen.

Raw / ungraded

Match the issue
Match the full year or season, release, number and named edition to this reference. Ask for readable images of the actual item’s front and back.
Record visible condition
Inspect corners, edges, centering and surface in suitable photographs or in person. Record damage or unanswered questions without assigning a predicted professional grade.
Keep authentication separate
Ungraded does not establish authenticity or mean “never authenticated.” A protective case alone does not establish a professional condition grade.

Professionally graded

Read the complete label
Record the grading company, exact issue, card grade and any qualifiers or designation. Keep an autograph grade separate from the card’s condition grade. An authentication-only designation may have no numeric condition grade.
Compare the certification record
Use the company’s official lookup and compare its issue details and available images with the actual item, label and holder. A matching certification number alone does not establish that an offered item is genuine.
Compare within the stated scale
Retain the company’s exact grade name and number. Different companies and grade designations are not automatically equivalent; a numeric label does not establish a current price.

A source-linked reference or historical scan does not authenticate the card you are considering. CardRoster supplies no assigned grade, certification or price for it.
