Why Collect This Card:

• Scarce Second-Year Insert: Unlike mass-produced base cards, Star Power Plus inserts were a tougher pull, making them far more collectible today.

• Early Career Kobe: Released in his second NBA season, when Kobe was transitioning from a rising star to a full-fledged Lakers cornerstone.

• Premium Fleer Ultra Design: Foil stamping and standout card stock make this insert one of the most visually appealing late-90s Kobe issues.

• Investment Potential: PSA 9 examples of rare Kobe inserts remain in strong demand as collectors look beyond rookie-year cards.

Collector Significance:
Kobe Bryant’s 1996 rookie cards are iconic, but his second-year Fleer Ultra inserts like Star Power Plus are increasingly viewed as important pieces of his hobby legacy. With strong eye appeal, limited print runs compared to base cards, and grading protection, this card is both a display-worthy collectible and an excellent long-term hold.
