How many Finals 1/1’s does your team have?

I got interested in this when I realized how few Finals cards there are. It’s just a rare moment for a team to make the Finals, and a few cards in a couple of sets will feature it the following year. When you count 1/1’s, it’s really about a handful of cards total, even for a dynasty.
I define a Finals card as one with a photo from a Finals game, and a mention of the Finals on the back, or the Finals logo.
The Suns, who have made the Finals only once since 1/1’s were invented, have exactly four Finals 1/1’s, as far as I can tell: three in 2020-21 Panini Instant, and a Chris Paul Timeless Moments in 2021-22 Panini One and One.
I have managed to collect two of them, and I’d love to find the third Instant (Booker, #236). Nuggets fans, keep your eye out when these sets start coming out, first-time opportunity for you!
