NFT Memorabilia Grail for Championship Run
Sports NFT fans can expect to see NFT memorabilia representing four of the seven title runs made by San Francisco’s iconic team. For example, the Grail NFT collection will feature highlights from Golden State’s most recent championship run, as well as the thrilling NBA Finals series against the Celtics.
There are 4 types of NFTs in Grail’s NFT collection. ‘Legendary’ NFTs are the rarest, and come with a physical release in addition to the digital NFT. According to the description on Binance, “Legendary NFTs come with a physical signed sports memorabilia item”.
Although these player autographed physical jerseys and basketballs are limited to the availability of the legendary NFT level, there are also NFTs in rare categories, such as the “Klay Thompson Hall Of Fame” and “All Star” NFTs, that investors have a 19.5% chance to pull out of the box.
Meanwhile, NFT enthusiasts on Twitter have an 80% chance of getting “Klay Thompson Pro” NFTs, which likely include super-rare NFTs like “Splash Brothers”, featuring Klay Thompson & Steph Curry’s natural wood pointers.

Sports NFTs on the rise
Besides basketball, sports and NFTs seem to be a good mix, proving to be successful in the world of football. As the 2022 FIFA World Cup in Qatar approaches, it’s no surprise that European football clubs such as Valencia, Real Madrid, Sevilla, FC Barcelona, and most recently Real Sociedad, have launched their own football fans.
Ultimately, the integration of Web 3.0 betting into European football seems like the next big thing, with even governing body FIFA launching its official FIFA+ NFT Marketplace. If this trend continues, sports NFT revenue is likely to double from the $1.4 billion collected in 2021.
On the other side
- The probability of receiving a physical edition of a legendary Klay Thompson NFT is 1 in 200.
- Some sports fans on Twitter have a less positive view of the NFTs.
- Tokens for soccer fans have experienced a significant drop despite the World Cup kick-off getting ever closer.
Why you should care
Market research estimates that sports collectibles in the form of non-fungible tokens (NFTs) could generate as much as $92 billion by 2032.
