# Card Notes Panini Donruss Optic represents the final chapter of Panini's NBA licensing era before losing rights to Topps. Released in 2023, the set exemplifies the modern chromium aesthetic that defined late-period Panini basketball products. With its bold designs, refractor technology, and diverse insert sets, Optic remained a collector favorite despite industry uncertainty surrounding the company's future. Stephen Curry cards from this period hold particular appeal for Warriors fans and basketball enthusiasts alike. His continued excellence and cultural relevance ensure steady collector demand. This Optic issue captures Curry during his prime years, featuring the set's signature shimmering finish that brings his image to life through dynamic photography and layered design elements.
