In case you haven't heard, Saturday Night's NBA Dunk Contest was absolutely lit. Everyone brought the goods, but it was defending champ Zach LaVine and newcomer Aaron Gordon who really stole the show. LaVine ended up taking home the trophy for the second year in a row while rocking a PE pair of Nike Hyperdunk 2015 Lows, and from the looks of things, LaVine's exclusives will actually be releasing.

Nike Basketball tweeted out the images below, which picture LaVine's Hyperdunk 2015 Low in Nike's usual official imagery, leading us to believe these will be dropping eventually. They feature asymmetrical black and orange uppers, "ZTL" tongue badges reminiscent of this year's other Nike Basketball "All-Star" sneakers, and bold "NIKE" branding across the midsole. At the heel, there's also a "206" badge as a nod to LaVine's hometown of Seattle, Wash.

If these Hyperdunks do end up dropping, you should expect limited numbers similar to previous Dunk Contest PEs from players like Nate Robinson and Blake Griffin.
