Harden's second autograph-only continuation card is a useful archival detail because it shows how the 2009 rookie run layers autograph subjects deeper into the numbering rather than confining them to one early RC band.

Harden's #45 helps give the final NBA Exquisite release real long-term depth beside Curry and Blake. It is a clean example of how the 2009 rookie spine still matters even without the earlier years' standard NBA patch window format.

Card #72 is part of the autograph-only continuation at the end of the 2009 rookie run. It matters because it shows the final-year rookie structure is not random; the set intentionally extends its autograph rookies beyond the RC-marked portion of the checklist.
