Collection: Golden State Warriors Basketball Cards

Golden State Warriors basketball cards

Golden State Warriors basketball cards are among the most valuable in the hobby, thanks to Stephen Curry. Collectors also chase rookie cards of Klay Thompson and Draymond Green. Curry's Panini Prizm rookie card is a grail item, while vintage Warriors cards for Wilt Chamberlain offer timeless appeal. Modern rookie cards for Jonathan Kuminga and Moses Moody have also gained collector attention.

The Golden State Warriors, founded in 1946 as the Philadelphia Warriors, carry a history spanning early NBA titles, Hall of Fame legends, and a modern dynasty that has revolutionized basketball. The franchise won the inaugural 1947 championship behind scoring star Joe Fulks and claimed another title in 1956 with Hall of Famers Paul Arizin, Tom Gola, and Neil Johnston. Relocating to San Francisco in 1962, the team added superstar Wilt Chamberlain, who scored 100 points in a single game in 1962 and became one of the most dominant players in history. After moving across the bay to Oakland in 1971, the Warriors won the 1975 NBA title led by Rick Barry, whose scoring and underhand free throws powered an upset over the Washington Bullets. The franchise endured ups and downs until the late 2000s, when the “We Believe” Warriors, led by Baron Davis and Stephen Jackson, shocked the top-seeded Dallas Mavericks in the 2007 playoffs. The true dynasty began in 2009 with the drafting of Stephen Curry, whose three-point shooting transformed the NBA. Alongside Klay Thompson, Draymond Green, and later Kevin Durant, the Warriors captured three titles in 2015, 2017, and 2018 under coach Steve Kerr, with Durant winning two Finals MVPs and Curry redefining offensive basketball. After injuries and roster changes, the Warriors returned to glory in 2022 as Curry secured his first Finals MVP, defeating the Boston Celtics for the franchise’s seventh championship. From Chamberlain’s dominance to Curry’s dynasty, the Warriors’ history blends early legends, modern innovation, and one of basketball’s most passionate fan bases spanning multiple generations.
