Charles Barkley
Born: February 20, 1963
College: Auburn
Drafted: 1st Round #5 (1984)
His only recognized rookie card is the 1986-87 Fleer.
It remains one of his most collectible cards, especially in good condition, and is one of the most valuable in the set besides the Michael Jordan RC.
Sir Charles and the Round Mound of Rebound are two Charles Barkley nicknames I remember during his career.
Never won an NBA Championship, but was one of the best players during his time.
Had some successful Nike shoes, including the "I am not a role model" TV ads.
Known more now for his work on the popular TNT basketball coverage.
Charles didn't sign many autographs for card companies during his career. Even today, his signature cards are some of the most valuable because he obviously doesn't like signing much.
