It’s literally a lottery to be one of the lucky ones to get a chance to buy into an NBA Top Shot pack drop.
There are two moments of elation when it comes to an NBA Top Shot pack drop. The first, jumping into the pack drop queue and being one of the lucky ones when your queue number is early enough to score a pack.
And If you hit the jackpot, then the fun bit begins when clicking on ‘Open Your Pack’ where you’ll be met with music that will get your adrenaline pumping.
You're also guaranteed to make mega profit on an NBA Top Shot pack which you'll see below.
Top Shot Pack Chances
Oh boy was I lucky to score a Cool Cats pack drop. With at least 270,000+ members waiting in the queue, only 67,500 packs were available in the drop.
That’s at best a 25% chance of scoring a pack during the most recent drop.
If you ask my mate Corey, he’s missed out on the last four drops, whilst I’ve been extremely fortunate to hit 2-of-4. It really comes down to luck.
Fortunately I was 9211th in line, and was able to score myself a Cool Cats pack. You can see my pack drop opening here.
Top Shot Pack Drop Schedule
At the moment there isn't a set schedule for pack drops nor is there a pattern. They're random and can occur (with notice) at any time.
Check out the official NBA Top Shot website where you can sign up via email to be notified of any drops.
I find by far the easiest and best way to keep up with NBA Top Shot drops is via the NBA Top Shot Discord.
With 306,286 members on their channel, it isn't by any means a secret.
The #announcements however is invaluable in keep you up to date with drops, as well as updates on a drop which quite often gets pushed back.
NBA Top Shot Pack Drop Profit Margins
If you're lucky enough to score a pack, you can bet the entire house that you’re going to make a profit off it.
At this point in time, your cheapest moments are bases which are selling on the marketplace for $9.
The Cool Cats pack cost me $14.
If all moments were sold for the minimum, a pack would earn you at least $45 and a 221% profit.
Fortunately the moments I pulled were a lot better than base minimums. The value of all moments I pulled were $147, or a $950% increase from the initial cost of the pack.
De'Aaron Fox $11
Paul George $13
Wendell Carter Jr $19
Julius Randle $9
Shai Gilgeous-Alexander $95
So there you have it. If you’re lucky to score a pack at retail price, you’re going to make a profit.
