Denotatively speaking, the word “thunderstruck” means to be astonished or dumbfounded.
It’s that jaw-dropping feeling you got when you first heard, for example, that NBA superstar Kevin Durant dropped 66 points in a game at Harlem’s historic Rucker Park earlier this summer. Or when you watched him lead the NBA in scoring — twice. Or when you watched him score 39 points against Memphis in Game 7 of the Western Conference Semifinals in May.
It’s also the feeling you’ll get in just a few seconds when you see, for the first time, each of the 10 cards in the special Thunderstruck set slated for inclusion in Panini America’s September release of 2010-11 Elite Black Box Basketball.
The unique trading-card tribute to Durant, one of four Panini-exclusive spokesmen alongside Kobe Bryant, Blake Griffin and John Wall, is sure to score big — like the man himself — with fans who never tire of his majestic on-court feats. Each of the 10 cards in Thunderstruck features a bold, beautiful signature — unmistakable evidence that Durant is just as brilliant with a paint pen as he is in the paint — and is limited to just 10 copies.
For those of you prepared to be thunderstruck by Durant one more time, here’s the can’t-miss gallery:
