Chris Mullin is a Golden State Warriors franchise legend — a Hall of Famer, five-time All-Star, and one of the purest left-handed shooters the game has ever produced. The heart of the beloved early-1990s Run TMC trio alongside Tim Hardaway and Mitch Richmond, and an original member of the 1992 Olympic Dream Team — which was itself enshrined in the Hall of Fame as a unit — Mullin won the 1985 John R. Wooden Award at St John’s and has his No. 17 retired by the Warriors (career record). He is a cornerstone name for any collector building a Warriors legends collection.
What to collect
Mullin’s headline card is his 1986-87 Fleer #77 rookie — from the same landmark set that carries the Michael Jordan rookie, which makes it one of the most recognizable and heavily collected issues of its era. Because it is a genuinely vintage card, condition and grade matter enormously: a high-grade, well-centered example is worth dramatically more than a raw, off-center one. Beyond the rookie, Mullin appears across the late-’80s and early-’90s hobby — Fleer, Hoops, SkyBox, and Upper Deck — giving Run TMC-era collectors a deep, affordable second avenue past the flagship rookie. NBA Hoops debuted in 1989-90, right at the peak of Run TMC, and its large team-by-team checklists make it the most practical way to assemble a full Warriors roster from those years.
Buying tips
- Buy graded (PSA, SGC, BGS) for the 1986-87 Fleer rookie — authenticity and condition sensitivity are very high for a card this collectible from this set.
- Centering, corners, and surface separate common copies from valuable ones; late-’80s Fleer is notoriously tough to find well-centered.
- Beware of reprints for the ‘86-87 Fleer set — buy from reputable, high-feedback sellers with clear photos of the actual card.
- The eBay rails above show live Mullin listings — rookies, graded slabs, and card lots.
Where Mullin fits in a Warriors collection
Mullin sits alongside Rick Barry and Wilt Chamberlain in the top tier of vintage Warriors names — the Hall of Famers whose cards anchor a franchise-legends collection. Pair them with modern-dynasty pillars like Stephen Curry and Klay Thompson to span every era of Warriors basketball.
