One of the biggest thrills in the collecting hobby has always been the mystery. Every pack opened brings excitement, anticipation, and the possibility of discovering something unforgettable — from superstar rookies to rare parallels hiding inside every box.
For the 2025 WNBA season, Panini has taken that excitement even further with the introduction of Mystery Redemptions. Featured across several major releases, including the highly anticipated 2025 Select WNBA collection, these special redemption cards add an entirely new level of suspense for collectors.
Unlike traditional redemption cards, Mystery Redemptions reveal no player names and offer no public checklist, leaving collectors guessing which future star could be waiting inside. The mystery remained completely hidden — until now.
The official lineup includes five standout rookies from the 2025 WNBA rookie class: Paige Bueckers, Sonia Citron, Dominique Malonga, Kiki Iriafen, and Hailey Van Lith.
Even with the reveal, the suspense continues. Collectors still won’t know which rookie they received until the redemption card officially arrives, making every redemption a surprise waiting to happen. What collectors do know is the premium card style tied to each release.
Mystery Redemptions from Impeccable feature Crown Royale Rookie Silhouettes, while One and One includes Flawless Rookie Patch Autographs. Meanwhile, Select WNBA collectors can chase highly coveted National Treasures Rookie Patch Autographs Mystery Redemptions.
The mystery may be smaller now, but the excitement is bigger than ever. Which rookie are you hoping to pull? Which future star will arrive in your redemption package? As collectors prepare for the release of Select WNBA, the chase for Mystery Redemptions is only just beginning.
