Star held the NBA card license from 1983 to 1986, so the rookie cards of a Hall of Fame class are Star cards. These are the key rookies, set by set, with Michael Jordan's 1984-85 Star cards alongside his #101 rookie. Every Star Jordan is on The 27 Star Jordans.
Isiah Thomas also appears in the 1983 Star All-Star Game set (#11), but his 1983-84 Star base card is his rookie card.
1983-84 Star
His 1983-84 Star base card is his rookie card. He also appears in the 1983 Star All-Star Game set (#11), but that card is not his RC.
