Yesterday via their social channels, Topps posted a teaser image for the upcoming Garbage Pail Kids x NBA collaboration. The upcoming 2025-26 Bowman Basketball set will contain a GPK themed insert set. The company showed the chrome GPK card of Utah rookie Ace Bailey. All artwork for the NBA GPK cards was done by longtime artist David Gross. In the post, Topps did refer to the card being a SP card. Now that Topps has acquired additional sports licenses the company is beginning to incorporate GPKs into those brands, much like they’ve done the last two years with Bowman Chrome Baseball. No other details around the GPK inserts has been announced by Topps, including checklist, odds, or release date. Bowman Basketball will include a mix of young NBA stars, along with top college players. Collectors should expect the GPK checklist to follow that same formula.
