Panini Select represented one of the final releases from Panini before the company lost its NBA license to Fanatics. The 2024 release maintained Select's reputation for bold, artistic designs and premium production quality, blending modern aesthetics with the brand's signature visual flair. Collectors valued these final Panini releases as nostalgic pieces marking the end of an era that had defined basketball cards for over a decade. Pascal Siakam's Blue parallel captures the Canadian forward during his continued evolution as a key piece for the Toronto Raptors. Collectors pursue Siakam cards from this period for their connection to a player who remains central to franchise history and continues to deliver consistent two-way performance at a high level.
