A set by Topps that is viewed by most as one that helps connect the era NBA/ABA merger era to the company's monumental 1980-81 release that featured the first-year examples of players such as Magic Johnson and Larry Bird, the company's 1978-79 hoops release featured a checklist of 132-cards and featured the rookie offerings of Jack Sikma, Dennis Johnson, Marques Johnson, Bernard King, Norm Nixon and Walter Davis while the bevy of stars include the likes of Bill Walton, Julius Erving, Pete Maravich, Walt Frazier, Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, Rick Barry, Artis Gilmore, Moses Malone, Earl Monroe, Wes Unseld, George Gervin, Elvin Hayes, Calvin Murphy, Nate Archibald, and many more.
