NBA Top Shot Rising Stars Pack Drop Details: Moments, Time, and Cost for All-Star Promo
With the NBA All-Star Game set for Sunday, the biggest virtual sensation in terms of gambling on collectible moments will also offer another pack drop. NBA Top Shot has been sweeping the internet, even though it’s still in beta mode. On Sunday, March 7, they’ll offer members an opportunity to grab an NBA Top Shot Rising Stars pack for a price. That allows a gamble on more of those rare moments that thousands of people can’t get enough of.
What is NBA Top Shot Rising Stars pack?
NBA Top Shot offers NFTs or Non Fungible Tokens. They are basically collectible digital “moments,” which are video highlights of NBA players on the blockchain. Moments feature assists, steals, layups, blocks, jumpshots, and/or dunks. They range from low-priced common players to higher-priced superstars, including LeBron James, Luka Doncic, and Zion Williamson.
Top Shot members can buy packs to randomly get moments. Alternatively, it’s possible to buy specific moments on a Top Shot marketplace. Currently, Top Shot is in Beta, so new signups are unavailable.
On Friday, Top Shot began their first of three drops for Seeing Stars packs, which included three moments per pack. One of those moments in each pack was an exclusive Seeing Stars moment featuring an NBA All-Star player. Top Shot limited these moments to 10,000 each.
The other two moments were of “common” players from Series 2. The Seeing Stars packs cost $14 each. Top Shot limited packs to around 60,000 or so during each of the three drops.
Just a few days ago, NBA Top Shot revealed the 2021 NBA All-Star Rising Stars rosters. They are the players who make up Team USA and Team World, including LaMelo Ball, Zion Williamson, Ja Morant, Rui Hachimura, RJ Barrett, and more. There won’t be an official game like in past years due to safety protocols, but Top Shot is still honoring many of these players in their own way.
On Sunday, the NBA Top Shot Rising Stars pack drop takes place. These packs will feature super-rare moments from some of these young stars.
Below is a screenshot of all of the unique moments that will be available:
In addition, there will be two rewards available for the Rising Stars. They will be for the No. 1 overall picks in the last two NBA Drafts: Zion Williamson (Pelicans) and Anthony Edwards (Timberwolves).
Pack drop details for Rising Stars release
To get in on the NBA Top Shot Rising Stars pack drop, members will need to head over to the website before 2 p.m. Pacific Standard Time (5 p.m. Eastern Time). The packs carry a price tag of $199 each. Top Shot limited these to 32,740 total packs.
They’ll include rare Rising Stars Moment limited to 2,021 copies, and also one of the Seeing Stars moments limited to 10,000 copies. For those who miss out on the drop, there will be 3,638 packs withheld for future giveaways or other promotional purposes.
Of course, the NBA Top Shot Rising Stars moments will also start to pop up on the marketplace. However, they’re likely to carry some high prices due to rarity. Therefore, it’s best if you’re a member to head over to the website and try to get a spot in the queue ahead of this rare drop. That is unless you have a big bankroll already available to purchase rare moments.
