From Upper Deck:In what has become as common as the leaves turning shades of brown, orange and yellow in the fall, Upper Deck has once again beat the competition to sign the top rookies for its young stars themed set, Hot Prospects Basketball. 2007-08 Hot Prospects Basketball (SRP $6.99 per five-card pack) is headlined by Kevin Durant and his 25 points per game and his fellow NBA Freshmen, such as Joakim Noah, Corey Brewer, Al Horford, Michael Conley, Jeff Green and Julian Wright.

Each of these newcomers to the pro hardwood have signed their autos to the popular auto patch rookie cards - which will drop at a rate of one per box - as well as the Rookie Materials letter cards and Draft Day Postmarks. 2007-08 Upper Deck Hot Prospects Basketball hits store shelves today (November 29).
