After weeks of chatter that never really amounted to anything more than hot air (because he was still a Nike-endorsed athlete so of course he wasn’t not going to wear his competition until his contract started with the now-former competition), James Harden is now an adidas athlete and now he’s going to wear adidas on and off the court. He wore a red adidas Crazylight Boost 2015 in his preseason debut against the Memphis Grizzlies, scoring 11 points in limited minutes. With a huge adidas contract signed and a lot of noise coming from him about being the real MVP last season and the man to beat this season, we’ll be seeing lots of Harden in the coming months for sure.
Meanwhile out in DC, another adidas athlete was making noise as John Wall brought his second signature shoe with the three stripes – the J Wall 2 – to the Wizards preseason opener. Good to see that we’re not even bothering to wait for the season to actually start proper before seeing the new new stuff.
As for the rest of the night in kicks, JaMychal Green rocked the Air Jordan 11 “Gamma”, Charlie Westbrook wore the Air Jordan 13 and Christian Wood brought back the Air Jordan 12 “Taxi.” What? It’s the preseason, we’ll be back to our old familiar names soon enough.
