UNR / Reno area playersby Hittinaway - 42 cards (Last updated on Feb 17, 2024) |
22. 2007-08 Bowman Sterling - Superfractors Gold #RS Ramon Sessions
Teammate of Fezekes (2004–2007) and my favorite basketball player while I was in college and who went on to play a decade in the NBA. Great player but didn't always get the starting job in the pros. I am trying to collect all his RCs and here is his 1/1 card. I also have his 1/1 2007-08 Topps Chrome card. |
23. 2013-14 Panini Intrigue - Autograph Jerseys Prime #18 Ramon Sessions
This is really the only basketball player I collect as I typically stick to baseball but any auto or patch cards I like to pick up when I can. |
24. 2016-17 Panini Immaculate Collection - Special Event Materials Prime #SE-RSS Ramon Sessions
I actually have 7 copies of this card and while there are only 15 in total, I couldn't decide which I liked so now I have too many copies. Sometimes it's nice to have a player that isn't a big draw from collectors and are not pricey. |
25. 2010-11 Panini Season Update - Rookie Duals Signatures #31 Luke Babbitt / Armon Johnson
Both Armon (2007-2010) and Luke (2008–2010) were drafted by Portland. I liked that they were both on the card and continued to be teammates for a couple extra years. |
26. 2010-11 Panini Limited - Freshmen Jumbo Jersey Numbers Prime Signatures #16 Luke Babbitt
This is my favorite Babbitt card due to the patch. Luke is currently with the Heat (2018) and although he doesn't play much it's great to have an increase of Nevada players in the NBA. |
27. 2010 Upper Deck World of Sports - Autographs #55 Armon Johnson
Armon played briefly in the NBA but still playing on various basketball leagues. |
28. 2015 Panini Contenders Draft Picks - Draft Ticket #192 Mimi Mungedi
Born in Gabonese Republic (a French Colony in Africa) she went on to play a few seasons in the WNBA. |
29. 2017 Panini Flawless Collegiate - Rookie Autographs #BRA-CO Cameron Oliver
Played 2015-17 before leaving for the draft. Good player but I think he should have played another year in college. He is currently playing in the G-League. |
30. 2019 Panini Prizm Draft Picks - Prizms Carolina Blue #36 Cody Martin
A fantastic player for Nevada, Cody and his twin brother Caleb were both drafted by the Hornets. |

Shawn Estes Matt Williams not UNR but Nevada Here is a good link https://www.baseball-reference.com/schools/index.cgi?key_school=c0474c79 https://www.baseball-reference.com/bio/NV_born.shtml same can be done with football, basketball, hockey etc I live in Nevada too. This state has been very bad to me and my family. Hope the list helps | ||
Unfortunately, the *-reference.com doesn't cover CFL guys, but there are cards available of guys like Lucuis Floyd, Shar Pourdanesh and Chris Vargas available. And Fajardo is having a great season with the Riders, having become the starter after an injury and has lead them to the Western Division lead. Still no CFL cards for him, though. | ||
I like that Babbitt and Johnson went on to play together professionally. I'm not really familiar with them, but it's a cool story and experience for them. | ||
Bob Hamm, #90 Houston Oilers, 1983-1984, never received his own NFL card. But he made a cameo appearance on Eric Dickerson's 1985 Topps Record Breaker card. | ||
Good find C2Cigars! I never would have found that! I wonder how many players who don't have cards are lost in the background. |
