The Gold Metal SLAM 263 OG Anunoby cover retailed for $94 and sold out fast
Confirmed sales are coming in between $200 and $300
All magazine sales are final and the presale will not ship until August 31, 2026

OG Anunoby spent the spring turning into the Knicks’ most reliable closer, and SLAM just gave that stretch its own trading card moment. The Gold Metal edition of SLAM 263 went up for sale on July 8 as one of the alternate covers for the issue, and true to form for anything tied to this championship run, it disappeared almost immediately. Resellers who caught the window are already listing copies for nearly triple what they paid, though there’s a catch worth knowing before you chase the next one.

OG Anunoby Slam Magazine 263 Gold Metal

SLAM 263 went on sale July 8, about four weeks after the Knicks closed out their title, and the Gold Metal Anunoby cover leans into the moment that made him a folk hero in New York. In Game 4 of the Finals, Anunoby blocked a transition layup on one end, then came back down and buried the game-winning putback with 1.2 seconds left as part of a 29-point comeback.

The Gold Metal edition features raised gold lettering across the cover and was capped at 94 individually numbered copies, with a strict limit of two per order. It’s technically a presale, meaning buyers won’t have magazines in hand until shipping begins on August 31.

This isn’t the first time SLAM has cashed in on that exact sequence. The previous issue, SLAM 262, ran its own Gold Metal Anunoby cover celebrating the same block-and-tip-in combo, and those copies have held up well on the secondary market, with active listings currently reaching as high as $400.

We saw a similar pattern back in March with SLAM’s Kon Knueppel Gold Metal covers, which held resale value once the initial print run dried up. Not every Gold Metal issue holds like this, but ones tied to a signature moment for a beloved player tend to stick.

Right now, resellers are flipping copies of SLAM Magazine 263 with the Gold Metal OG Anunoby cover for over $200, with some sales closing in on $300.

Volume is still low and sales are coming in closer to a trickle than a torrent, but it’s a very positive sign for resellers. Since these are explicitly limited to 94 copies, we don’t expect to see prices dip much more.

With the previous 262 Gold Metal covers trading for over $400, it’s clear that the hype train around Anunoby hasn’t slowed following the finals. He signed several promotional deals following the win, including a limited edition shoe deal with Skechers, and we’re hoping that these newest magazines will continue to appreciate.

Bottom Line

This is a solid flip if you managed to grab one at $94, with $160 to $200 in likely profit even after fees once copies ship. Just don’t chase secondary market copies at $300 assuming that ceiling holds for seven more weeks. The SLAM 262 precedent suggests moments like this hold value, but final sale terms mean there’s real downside if the hype cools first.
