NO tcdb SID. This set is filed inside the parent checklist past the base run (EXTRACTION_SPEC 5.3) as part of a contiguous 101-190 rookie autograph block, every row of which carries the flags "AU RC SN99" - https://www.tcdb.com/Checklist.cfm/sid/170390/2017-18-Panini-Encased?PageIndex=2 renders 101-182 and https://www.tcdb.com/Gallery.cfm/sid/170390/2017-18-Panini-Encased?PageIndex=19 renders 183-190. card_count 40 is stated by cardboardconnection, "Rookie Endorsements Autographs Set Checklist / 40 cards. Serial numbered #/99." (https://www.cardboardconnection.com/2017-18-panini-encased-basketball-nba-cards), and independently by sportscardchecklist, "2017-18 Panini Encased Rookie Endorsements (40 Cards)" (https://www.sportscardchecklist.com/sport-basketball/year-2017-18/index-panini-encased/trading-card-checklists-and-product-information). NAMING: cardboardconnection calls it "Rookie Endorsements Autographs"; sportscardchecklist calls it "Rookie Endorsements", which is also what encased-bkb-2018-19 and encased-bkb-2019-20 carry, so the shorter form is written and the cardboardconnection form is recorded here. The block's internal boundaries were NOT rendered as a section break by any source and are not asserted anywhere in this release; what is sourced is the per-set COUNT, from two independent lineages, and the arithmetic 40+30+20 = 90 = parent Total Cards 190 minus the 100-card base run. All rows of the block are serial numbered to 99; sets.csv cannot hold a set print run (EXTRACTION_SPEC 2.2) so it is recorded here in words and in gaps.csv.

This set has a recorded count of 40, but the card-by-card checklist is not yet in the catalogue. That's an open research question, not a statement that no checklist exists. If you know a source that documents it, tell us — a pointer to one is exactly what closes these.
