It's a really significant stat, especially when used in conjunction with the +/- number.

For many I think acquiring/investing in cards of contemporary players -- especially basketball -- is part of being a fan.
It's a different inspiration that collecting vintage cards. Buying a card of Doncic, Jokic, or Josh Allen is way of rooting for them and "betting" on their success during the season. Nothing like building a T206 set, or trying to pick up cards of every hall of famer from their careers

Obviously the guys buying these types of cards have lots of play money and I am guessing most are relatively young. I suspect a good part of it driven by social media and bragging rights.
