This Week's Worst: Week 4

1997-98 Z-Force Fast Track

Meant to highlight some of the NBA's future stars, these 12 neon-yellow cards feature a unique characteristic that fortunately has never been reproduced. At the top and bottom of each card, the areas in black have a felt or slightly rough texture. What connection this mystery texture has to the set's theme, I don't know. But it might have made more sense with a rubber finish. But the combination of poor player selection (only 2 or 3 out of the 12 might make the Hall of Fame) and the odd texture makes this a classic worst.
