2026 Topps Clutch Gene Kon Knueppel #CG-14

Pressed hard by Toronto on 11/29/25, the Charlotte Hornets passed to Kon Knueppel, who buried a game-tying three-pointer with just 10 seconds left — sending the game to overtime. The Hornets went on to claim a 118-111 OT victory. This Clutch Gene insert from Topps Chrome Basketball commemorates that defining rookie moment for Knueppel, showcasing his ice-in-the-veins composure under pressure. Depicted in his Charlotte #7 jersey mid-jump shot, the card's dark futuristic design perfectly frames the tension of a clutch performance. The RC badge on the front confirms this as a true rookie card from what looks to be a landmark debut season for the young Hornets guard.
