He and She Are on Fire!
While most fans were underwhelmed with how things went during All-Star Weekend, the highlight was the head-to-head 3-point shootout between Steph Curry and Sabrina Ionescu.
Respect to Sabrina and Steph for putting on a show and making it dramatic and fun for the fans, with Sabrina rocking her signature in an unseen tonal Mint colourway and Steph rocking the NBA JAM x Curry Splash 24.
Something Old and Something New From Nike
Phoenix Suns All-Stars Kevin Durant and Devin Booker made their 14th and 4th appearances respectively this weekend and it was a big week for the Swoosh.
Devin Booker's was the focal point for Nike during All-Star, as billboards and banners of him and the Book 1 were plastered all across Indianapolis. Devin was rocking the launch 'Mirage' colourway all weekend and we're looking forward to more colourways of the Book 1 in the future.
Meanwhile, KD hit the time machine and went back to 2012 and brought back the , which hit retail and was on his feet during the All-Star Game.
'Believe That'
Things are looking up for Anthony Edwards. The Timberwolves are on top of the West and the 3 Stripes gave him his first signature shoe this season in the AE1. The 'All-Star' colourway that dropped this weekend featured an iridescent upper that Ant-Man was rocking for the Skills competition and the All-Star Game, with a neon lace swap that works. adidas got something special brewing with Ant and the AE1 and we look forward to what's next. Believe that.
SGA at ASW
Shai Gilgeous-Alexander has big shoes to fill as he's the new face of , on and off the court. Starring in a new campaign inspired by the original Bird and Magic one from 1986, the Chevron know what a special player SGA is and had something unique at NBA All-Star.
Customised by @darkphilknight, Shai's Converse All-Star BB Trilliant featured a crocheted upper, looking like it's taken straight from your grandma's quilt. Having fun is what NBA All-Star Weekend is about and look forward to seeing what's in store for SGA and Converse.
LeBron Watch Back?
LeBron James has now played in his 20th All-Star Game, breaking the record held by Kareem Abdul-Jabbar and breaking out something wild in Indy.
It's no secret that LeBron idolised Deion Sanders and his got a makeover, taking on Prime Time's Air DT Max 96. The sneaker's signature claw marks and midfoot strap were added onto the LeBron 21 in the black, white, and gold colourway. This isn't the first time LeBron's sneakers have taken on the Diamond Turf collection, as the LeBron 15 took on the Diamond Turf II 6 years ago.
Still unknown if the LeBron Watch PEs are back or not, but hopefully we'll see more and these DT 96-inspired LeBrons will hit retail.
Tatum Time
The Jumpman showcased a few things this All-Star Weekend with the Jordan Tatum 2 being the main event. With fans trying out the new Tatums at NBA Crossover, Jayson broke out a new and unseen colourway dubbed 'Sidewalk Chalk'.
With the East taking home the win, Tatum got his fellow teammates to sign his signature sneaker, a keepsake he states he'll keep in his man cave.
