The 2025 Topps Chrome Update Magic Johnson Wave Purple #149 is a Basketball card (Wave Purple parallel) released in 2026. Ungraded copies carry a market value of about $18.00.
An ungraded copy is worth around $18.00, a PSA 9 around $38.62, a PSA 10 (Gem Mint) around $113.68 and a pristine BGS 10 around $148.00. That's roughly a 6.3× premium for a gem-mint copy over raw — one of the clearest signals that condition-sensitive buyers dominate this card's market.
Is it worth grading?
With raw copies near $18.00 and top grades reaching $113.68, grading a sharp copy of this card can clearly pay for itself — the spread comfortably covers a typical ~$25.00 grading fee. The catch: only submit copies with strong centering, clean corners, and unmarked surfaces, because anything below a 9 usually erases the math.
