A beautifully understated second-year Kevin Durant card with genuine scarcity in PSA 10.

The 2008-09 Upper Deck Starquest Gold Ultra Rare features an early-career Durant in his Seattle SuperSonics uniform, framed by the metallic gold and black Starquest design. It’s a simple but distinctive card that captures KD right at the beginning of his career.

The Gold Ultra Rare sits among the harder-to-find Starquest parallels, and graded examples remain relatively scarce. At the time of listing, only 49 examples have been graded by PSA in total, with just 18 receiving a PSA 10 Gem Mint.

This example is graded PSA 10 Gem Mint.

A great combination of second-year Durant, Seattle imagery, gold parallel and low PSA population — exactly the kind of early-career card that continues to stand out years later.
