Haha its funny because "NBA Top Shot" is actually a thing now, where you can own official NBA moments (like a Steph Curry 3 Pointer or Lebron James dunk.)
You're right, all that owning the card does is allow you to own a tradeable moment/card/NFT... no copyright or direct ownership of the play, player, or NBA.
However (correct me if I'm wrong) I do think that you would be granted some inherent rights or copyright protections (though this is early and would need to be contested in a court when it happens) because you do own the moment to some extent.
So, while a NBA Top Shot card holder may not receive any of that player's dividends or direct copyright for that play, maybe they have some inherent protection to be able to use this moment in artwork or another content creation form? Just food for thought!
