1990 91 Nba Hoops Dennis Rodman Detroit Pistons 65 Defensive Player Of The Year Appraisal

1990-91 NBA Hoops Dennis Rodman (Detroit Pistons) #65 - Defensive Player of the Year

This is a standard 2.5" x 3.5" collectible basketball trading card from the 1990-1991 NBA Hoops set, featuring Dennis Rodman of the Detroit Pistons. The card commemorates his achievement as 'Defensive Player of the Year,' indicated by a triangular orange graphic in the upper right. The photograph shows Rodman in his white Pistons home jersey (number 10) defending Scottie Pippen of the Chicago Bulls (number 33). The card's aesthetic is typical of the early 90s era, featuring a thick white border and the classic 'NBA Hoops' logo and Detroit Pistons team logo at the bottom left. The reverse side (not shown) would typically contain season statistics and biographical information. Regarding condition, while the card appears to have been stored in a plastic sleeve, there are visible signs of wear consistent with age. The upper-right corner shows slight softening (rounding), and the bottom right corner appears to have a minor nick or fraying. Additionally, the centering of the print within the white border appears slightly skewed toward the right margin. These factors are critical in grading, as 'mint' status requires perfect sharp corners and precise 50/50 centering. This card represents a significant period in NBA history, documenting Rodman's prime defensive years with the 'Bad Boys' Pistons.
