What NBA players have been wearing in the tunnel prior to the game has garnered just as much attention in recent years as their on-court sneakers.
Week in and week out, players across the association are seen lacing up styles ranging from coveted collaborations between Off-White x Nike to Travis Scott's Air Jordans to friends-and-family exclusives coming through the tunnels. LeBron James and P.J. Tucker are typically names that readers would find on a list like this but there are also a handful of players that usually fly under the radar that's deserving of the recognition as well. Other highlights this week include Otto Porter Jr. breaking out the Off-White x Air Jordan V a few days early, Shai Gilgeous-Alexander taking it back to Kanye West's Nike days with the "Net" Yeezy 1, and Ben Simmons lacing up Sean Wotherspoon's colorful Air Max 1/97 collab.
