Stephen Curry has changed the game of basketball forever with his style of play. The All-Time 3 Point Leader has mastered every single shot in the game of basketball while continuing to extend his range. Curry can beat you inside, outside, off the dribble, from half-court. You name it and Steph makes it look extremely easy. There’s nothing else that Stephen Curry has to prove to the fans in the NBA in his career as he’s been able to put up amazing numbers yearly.

 

This season Steph has put up 25.5 PPG, 6.3 APG, 5.2 RPG in the Under Armour Curry 9 and other Curry Models. Steph has been on a hot streak that we have not seen since NBA Jam’s “He’s On Fire” moments in the video game. In the NBA All-Star Game, he put on a shooting display that we will never forget ever finished with the All-Star Game MVP.

 

 

Stephen Curry brought that momentum from his historic All-Star Game showcase to the regular season with the Golden State Warriors. After the break, he’s been averaging 27 PPG and was letting it be known that he can lead this group of guys. This season Curry has put the Warriors on his back without Klay & Draymond but it’s his leadership that’s stood out the most.

 

The Warriors have been banged up throughout the season and Curry’s now added to the list as he’s being reevaluated in 2 weeks after the Celtics game. With Curry not on the court for the next couple of weeks, it’s time to showcase some of his best Under Armour Curry PEs that he’s rocked on the court this season. Under Armour has done an amazing job with the Curry 9 colorways this season the problem is they’ve just been very hard to get your hands on a pair.

 

 

 

 

Below are the Honorable Mentions that didn’t make the Player Exclusive cut because they were released to the public. Stephen Curry has been in his bag and I’m glad that Under Armour released some of these to the public instead of just keeping them PEs.

 

UA & Steph have released a “Sesame Street” collab as well. So far we’ve got Big Bird, Cookie Monster, Count von Count, and Oscar The Grouch. The Elmo, Abby Cadabby, and Lily the Tiger are rumored to be released in June of 2022.

Donovan Mitchell, Utah Jazz (SneakerReporter Top 10 PEs Series)

Donovan Mitchell, Utah Jazz (SneakerReporter Top 10 PEs Series)

Donovan Mitchell has made a name for himself in the NBA with his leadership, athleticism, and killer instinct on the court. One thing that has been lost in the sauce is the fact that he’s a walking bucket. This season on the Utah Jazz Spida is averaging 25.5 PPG and a career-best 5.4 APG as well. Donovan goes out there every night and puts the Utah Jazz on his back and puts opponents on posters.

 

The growth of Donovan Mitchell as a scorer has been on full display and the only thing stopping him from achieving greatness would be himself. There’s nothing better than having a franchise that believes in you and Mitchell has carved his name with the greats in Jazz history without hitting his prime yet. The Utah Jazz has gone 6-3 since All-Star Weekend with Donovan averaging 24 PPG and is positioned in 4th place in the Western Conference right now.

 

 

 

 

I’ve been a true fan of the Adidas D.O.N. Series, especially with some of the amazing collaborations. This season Spida has donned some of the best D.O.N. Issue #3 PEs we’ve seen from him since having a signature sneaker. The D.O.N. Issue #3 has been a great sneaker on the court and this season Donovan has been able to get in his PE bag a little more than with his past models.

 

This PE series list was tough because Spida had a lot of freedom this season with colorways he’s rocked so far. This is a Top 10 PE list so we had to stay true to the theme and ride with the pairs displayed below. One thing that makes Donovan Mitchell stand out from other athletes with their sneakers is the fact that some of his big theme colorways like (Bel-Air, Monsters INC, Louisville, & Lego) were made available to the public which I love.

Jayson Tatum, Boston Celtics (SneakerReporter Top 10 PEs Series)

Jayson Tatum, Boston Celtics (SneakerReporter Top 10 PEs Series)

Featured

by | Mar 6, 2022 | Featured, SneakerReporter Top 10 PE Series

 

Jayson Tatum has been going off since the NBA All-Star Break averaging 34 ppg. The Celtics are 5-1 on that stretch as JT has the Celtics in 5th place in the Eastern Conference right now. It’s been impressive watching Jayson Tatum put on a show all season but he’s coming into his own as a true leader as well. Tatum has a jumper that’s smoother than some ice and when he gets it going he looks unstoppable. If the Celtics are going to make a deep run in the NBA Playoffs it will be on the back of Jayson Tatum and his play. This Celtics team is shaping up to be special and it seems as though Coach Udoka has them balling at an elite level now.

 

 

 

JT rocked some of the hottest colorways since joining Jordan Brand back in 2019. This season the  Air Jordan 36 has been the go-to sneaker for Boston Celtics All-Star Jayson Tatum. JT has proved that he can get it done on the court and with that hard work comes amazing PEs that Jordan Brand allows you to make. You don’t have to look too far to see what Tatum is rocking because the majority of his sneakers will feature “Duece” his son on it somewhere. The Air Jordan 36 has brought him a lot of success especially coming off his season-high 54 points against Brooklyn yesterday in Beantown. Check out his highlights from yesterday’s 54 performance as he rocked an all-white pair of the Air Jordan 36 that we will name “The 54 Points”.

The Ethics lgONE “Frozen Coral” (Drops Today @ 11am EST)

The Ethics lgONE “Frozen Coral” (Drops Today @ 11am EST)

Featured

by | Mar 3, 2022 | Featured, Sneaker Releases

After the success of the first Ethics lgOne “Launch Edition” that was released on January 17th. Langston Galloway and his wife Sabrina are back with their second launch of the year the “Frozen Coral” which has been highly anticipated. Langston has debuted the “Frozen Coral” on the basketball court and the orange laces add some pop to the lgOne that we haven’t seen so far for retail.

 

 

 

 

I’m still waiting to get my hands on a pair of the lgOne but from people I respect in the industry, it’s one of the best sneakers to wear on the court for style and traction. Below is the press release from Langston & Sabrina about the “Frozen Coral” included with some beauty shots that will make you want to purchase these ASAP

 

PRESS RELEASE:

“Frozen Coral” is our next colorway of the Ethics lgONE.

When we started this journey we had a vision for what our shoes would become. The main focus was on materials, form and most important fit. Our shoes are for the players, by a player. We wanted the same approach for our colorways.

When it was time to start creating our “black” colorway, we knew it had to be above being just a “black colorway”. While this color space is typically based in the heart of the sport, the team. We wanted to add little elements to elevate it and make it more unique. Enter, Frozen Coral.

The color provides the right amount of pop to take it to the next level. The ice’d sole gives it a clean presence. The suede adds a touch that takes it above just a court a shoe.

The lgONE “Frozen Coral” goes on sale this Thursday 03-03-22 @ 11:00 am eastern.

Demar DeRozan, Chicago Bulls (SneakerReporter Top 10 PEs Series)

Demar DeRozan, Chicago Bulls (SneakerReporter Top 10 PEs Series)

Featured

For the first Top 10 Player Exclusives of the series, I had to take it to Chitown. Demar DeRozan has showcased his inner Mamba Mentality averaging 28.3 ppg in his first season with the Bulls. He’s been on an MVP like tear this season and he’s been doing it in true Kobe fashion with his kicks as well. DeMar has made it known that the mid-range shot is still as lethal as a 3 pointer in the NBA. The things that DeMar has done in a new system with a new head coach (Billy Donovan) and a new running mate (Zach LaVine) have been extremely impressive. Check out some of his biggest highlights from this 2021-2022 season below to see exactly why he’s definitely in the MVP discussion for anyone doubting his emergence of greatness in Chicago.

 

 

 

In this series, we will be bringing the Top 10 Kobe 6 PEs that Demar DeRozan has worn so far this season. There are a select few of players in the NBA that still have a lot of Kobes since they have been extremely hard to find and Deebo finds himself near the top of that list. On any given night you don’t know what Kobes he will break out and his Nike Kobe 6 stash is the best in the whole NBA no questions asked. DeMar has a lot of different Kobes but I went with the Kobe 6 because that’s my favorite Nike Kobe signature shoe. The Nike Kobe 6 was originally released in the 2010-2011 by the (Black Mamba) Kobe Bryant himself. My favorite Nike Kobe 6 is the Christmas aka “The Grinch” as seen below Kobe broke these out and these were an instant classic.
