What is the James Harden: The Way of the Beard Collection?
Autograph is excited to announce its partnership with basketball legend, James Harden. James is an American professional basketball player for Philadelphia known for his prolific scoring and iconic beard.
For the Collection, Autograph will be releasing two (2) types of NFTs in the Way of the Beard Series celebrating James’ success as a pro player and his journey in the 2022 playoffs.
