Wade’s trading cards have become some of the most sought after collectible items in the industry.
The agreement, which comes on the heels of Topps announcing a spokesperson deal with Allen Iverson, grants Topps exclusive rights within the NBA trading card category for autographed cards, memorabilia cards and Wade’s image use on packaging and advertising.
