Kenneth Faried Basketball

Drafted by the Denver Nuggets in 2011, Faried wore jersey number 35 throughout his tenure with the team, establishing himself as a reliable sixth man and defender over eight seasons. His presence in Panini's 2015-16 Contenders Draft Picks set reflects his sustained relevance during the mid-2010s, a period when he was competing at the professional level across multiple franchises including the Brooklyn Nets. Faried emerged from Morehead State Eagles, where he developed the athleticism and work ethic that would define his NBA role. While he did not achieve Hall of Fame status, his consistent performance as a role player and sixth man made him a notable presence in NBA rosters from 2011 through the 2020 season. Collectors seeking Kenneth Faried cards will find Panini Contenders Draft Picks among the key releases featuring his likeness. These cards appeal to fans building complete sets from the mid-2010s era, as well as collectors focused on Denver Nuggets memorabilia and NBA role player categories.
