Jim Petersen Basketball

He began his professional tenure with the Sacramento Kings wearing #34, where he spent six seasons before moving to the Houston Rockets for the final chapter of his career. Though Petersen did not achieve Hall of Fame status, he remained a steady contributor throughout his playing years, competing during an era rich with basketball trading card production. Petersen's trading cards appear primarily in early 1990s releases from Upper Deck and Skybox, two of the era's most collectible brands. His cards from the 1990-91 and 1991-92 seasons capture his peak years in the league and appeal to collectors focused on vintage NBA basketball cards. These releases represent the golden age of card production when Upper Deck and Skybox dominated the market with high-quality photography and design. Collectors seeking Jim Petersen cards often pursue them as part of broader vintage NBA collections, set completions, or team-specific portfolios from the Sacramento Kings and Houston Rockets. His cards offer accessible entry points for those building 1990s basketball collections without the premium pricing of superstar contemporaries. SuperCatch maintains a growing selection of Petersen's cardboard, making it convenient for hobbyists to locate these pieces of early 1990s basketball history.
