2018-19 Donruss Optic Marvin Bagley III RC #168

Optic RC. Bagley's career was derailed by chronic knee and foot injuries that limited him to fewer than 200 games in his first five seasons. Paired with being selected ahead of Doncic, his cards tell the story of how injury risk and draft position create the most volatile combination in sports card investing.
