According to sources. The Philadelphia 76’ers have listed LeBron James as 6’11” for the 2026 season. IT WAS CLEAR LAST NIGHT that LeBron James, entering into his 24th season, GREW AT LEAST 2 inches in the offseason… joining Wemby and Cooper Flagg with offseason growth spurts. LeBron was previously listed as 6’9” for the Los Angeles Lakers in 2025.

Philly LeBron is DIFFERENT.
Year 24 LeBron got that PHILLY DAWG in him. This is all I needed to see. I’m buying everything LeBron. Those 2003 1st Edition Topps PSA 10 rookies are 🔥🔥🔥

Elon Musk basically gives away the business plan to Jay Leno in 2020 - explaining that SpaceX and Tesla will create a rocket car in the Tesla Roadster. Leno justifiably thinks Musk is joking. The CNBC host LOL’s. Cut to 2026! Rocket car. I can’t imagine any other CEO getting this specific about a business plan 6 years out.

This Malibu Fire like the Pacific Palisades Fire in 2025 has one clear commonality - the state of California’s lack of fire breaks and brush clearance.
Wishing the firefighters, who are putting their lives at risk tonight, good health and success.
Governor Newsom, you must revisit fire policy in California.

The Bryson fire started on and is currently burning on the SRA (State Responsibility Area) just like the Palisades Fire. Zero fire breaks and fuel modification zones thanks to Gavin Newsom’s CA State Parks. Are you paying attention yet? @spencerpratt@Hotshot_Movie
Tesla Roadster debuts with a 0.81 second 0 to 60 time. This is faster than any car ever. Do you believe they will achieve this in production?!

The 5 pro wrestlers that scared me the most as a kid - 1) Dr De*th Steve Williams, 2) Abdullah The Butcher, 3) Kamala, 4) One Man Gang, 5) Dr D David Schultz
The PSA 10 1st edition Charizard has done it. The icon. The Mount Rushmore. The legend. The singular, signature card of Pokémon that stands next to the 52 Mantle, the Black Lotus of MTG, the T206 Wagner, the 1984 Star Jordan. One of the 5 most iconic trading cards of all time. It’s crashed $1 MILLION DOLLARS. Pop 123.
When I bought the entire set of 1st edition Pokémon for $129,500 in 2019, that was a world record. Today that set is a $2,700,000+ asset IF you keep the roughly 50% long term Charizard:1st Edition Set ratio. 20X return in 7 years. Wow. Blown away. Not surprised same time.
Congratulations to @altxyzofficial and my friend @alexisohanian and @LeoreAvidar for a phenomenal outcome.

Top 8 Harry Potter collectibles with a 10X in 10 year potential! I’m looking at Harry Potter through the same lens I use for any great collectible… cultural importance, rarity, condition, the age of the collector, the recently of value creation, what new content is driving the opportunity, and how many serious collectors may want to own the best examples 10 years from now.
If I were building a list of categories with the potential to deliver 10x returns, I’d start with (1) the 1997 Philosopher’s Stone the first edition, first printing; (2) the first edition, second printing; and (3) the softcover first edition, first printing. I’d also look hard at (4) first edition, first printing copies of Books 2 through 7 signed by J.K. Rowling. The rarest early books may be (5) the uncorrected proofs: the four known styles across Books 1, 2, and 3, especially the exceptionally rare Chamber of Secrets proof cover.
Then there are the pieces that take you inside the making of the world: (6) original scripts, (7) storyboards, and (8) screen-used movie props with clear provenance and a strong connection to an iconic scene. I’d add the (9) original Wizards of the Coast trading cards and (10) original Harry Potter art, especially important book-cover art.
The best Harry Potter collectibles connect to a franchise that has shaped generations of readers and moviegoers. That doesn’t make 10x a sure thing; it makes these categories worth studying closely, with rarity, authenticity, condition, and entry price doing a lot of the work.
Sincerely,
Jeremy Padawer

This may be the greatest retail photograph in the history of collecting… $820 MILLION DOLLARS IN CARDS.
In 1952, at the F.W. Woolworth store on Fordham Road in the Bronx, New York, someone took this photograph of an absolutely ridiculous display of brand-new Topps baseball cards. There are 231 unopened boxes stacked here. At 24 packs per box, that’s 5,544 unopened packs sitting in a Woolworth’s waiting for kids to buy them for a nickel apiece.
And here’s the part I love… despite this being the legendary 1952 Topps set, these appear to be FIRST SERIES boxes… not the later series containing Mickey Mantle 311. The advertising panels visible in the photograph contain Series 1 cards, and detailed research has identified the cards on those panels. So there probably aren’t hundreds of Mantles hiding in this photograph. If these are 1st series they are $150,000 per pack.
But somehow that makes it even better. This wasn’t a treasure then. It was simply inventory. Baseball cards, bubble gum and kids walking through a Woolworth’s on Fordham Road in the Bronx with absolutely no idea they were standing in front of what would become one of the most iconic collectibles ever made.
Sincerely,
Jeremy Padawer
