Worth grading — even a PSA 9 beats raw
A PSA 10 Dwyane Wade [Die Cut] #119 sells for $1,489 against $37.29 raw: a $1,452 spread, 40× the ungraded price. Even a PSA 9 ($93.00) clears the raw price after an economy-tier ~$25 fee, so a near-miss still comes out ahead. Centering is the usual reason a clean copy misses the 10 — measure it before you submit.
