Want an investing tip? Don’t look for a hot stock. Or well-diversified mutual fund. Or a strand of Angelina Jolie‘s hair, which you could peddle very easily on eBay.

Instead, get a DeMar DeRozan rookie card -- its dollar value could one day skyrocket.

DeRozan, the Compton star and USC-bound swingman, will have his own ‘rookie card’ from the Topps Trading Card Company. In fact, all of the 24 boys and 24 girls who played in the McDonald’s All-American game last month gets one. So while you’re at it, you can pick up trading cards of Campbell Hall’s Jrue Holiday, Taft’s Larry Drew and Poly’s Jasmine Dixon, among others.

Pictured here is the soon-to-be released DeRozan card. And, by the way, I was kidding about hawking a strand of Angelina’s hair on eBay. That would be creepy.
