With the LaMelo Ball 3 on the horizon, Puma is still releasing colorways of the Melo Ball 2 “Whispers” will probably be one of the last colorways to release on the Melo Ball 2.

This colorway comes dressed in a cream color all throughout the sneaker. There is also black Melo Ball and Puma branding throughout the sneaker, the word “Rare” is seen in black on the wings logo on the medial side of the sneaker. This is one of the rare few simple colorways we’ve seen on the Puma MB.02 but it’s clean and simple look has seemed to catch a lot of people’s attention.

The Puma MB.02 “Whispers” is scheduled to release on May 26 at 10am with a retail price of $130 USD at select few retailers and the puma website.

Early Look At the Adidas Harden Vol. 8

After the success of the Harden Vol. 7, Adidas is set to release the Harden Vol. 8 in the upcoming months. With Harden set to be a free agent this offseason we could see some new colorways for his new team.

In hindsight it looks very similar to the Harden Vol. 7 because of the outsole, toebox, and ankle support area. But one major difference is the lateral sides as it has a big rubber base on the lateral side of the shoe, it’s unknown what material it is but it looks like that will have a big impact on lateral movement from keeping the foot from slipping or bending. No Harden or Adidas branding has been located yet on the sneakers as the photos are very early leaks. 

No official announcement has been announced yet about a release date but it could come during the middle of the 2023-24 NBA Season, due to the fact the Harden Vol. 7 took awhile to become available and released during the second half of the 2022-23 NBA Season.

The first leaked photo of the Adidas Trae Young 3 has surfaced. Young is set to debut his third signature sneaker for the upcoming 2023-24 NBA Season. Recently the Adidas basketball department has been keeping busy with the announcement of Anthony Edwards set to receive his first signature shoe and the success of the Harden Vol. 7. 

A big departure from the Adidas Trae Young 2, the Trae Young 3 seems to feature Adilette cushioning technology similar to their slides. The Trae Young 2 featured Adidas boost on the heel part of the sneaker. As far as materials, the upper seems to have primeknit like previous models. It also does have the iconic adidas 3 stripe logo on the lateral side of the sneakers, and the outsole does have a unique design to it as it looks like it’s bumpy and curvy on the outsole which is quite a different take. 

While no release date information has been announced yet look for these to release before or during the start of the 2023-24 NBA Season.

Nike has seemingly removed the Nike Ja Morant 1 off their website and apps. Morant was seen holding up a gun on Instagram live, when 2 months ago he held up a pistol on his Instagram live at a Denver NightClub. 

Morant signed a multi-year deal with Nike in May 2019, but could potentially be in risk of losing his contract with Nike.  The Ja Morant 1s were released on April 19, and have gained popularity in the basketball community. Nike does have the Ja 1 “Hunger” colorway set to release on May 25 which can be seen on the Nike SNKRS app. 

If you’re still looking to purchase the Ja 1 there are Retail stores like Dick’s Sporting Goods, Foot Locker and resell apps like StockX and Flight Club that still have Ja 1s for sale. As of right now Nike has yet to announce the situation with Ja Morant but if there are any updates we will keep you updated.
