Boy that offseason went by pretty quick, didn’t it? If you’re feeling that way it’s because it’s true, the 2020 NBA offseason was the shortest in league history. It’s once again time for the season to start, which means the annual tradition of each team having their respective media days. This 2020 edition of media day won’t look the same as years past, with less and less media crew members having access to team arenas and events due to the still-present COVID-19. Finding pictures of athletes’ media day kicks was much harder than last year, but they were out there in some capacity nonetheless.

Plenty of NBA players switched teams this offseason, as well as either signing with a new brand, or dropping the shoe company they were signed with. Jimmy Butler has officially signed with Li-Ning, after months of speculation about which brand he would end up with. Resident under-the-radar NBA sneakerhead, Langston Galloway, has cut his ties with independent brand, Q4 Sports. Galloway will once again be able to rock the immense amount of heat he has back on the court. Newcomer to the NBA, LaMelo Ball, inked a massive deal with PUMA. Russell Westbrook’s new running mate, Bradley Beal, joins him representing His Airness, by signing a deal with Jordan Brand. Trae Young of the Atlanta Hawks is in for the long haul at Adidas as it was just announced that Young will have a signature shoe of his own dropping sometime in 2021.

The 2018-19 NBA season saw the resurgence of the Nike Kobe 4 in Protro form. Last season (2019-20) was definitely the year of the Kobe 5 Protro and this coming season seems to be the year of the Kobe 6 Protro as well. Was the Kobe 4, 5, and 6 the best three-year run in a Nike basketball signature series? 2019-20 also saw a bunch of Lebron 7 retros drop, in addition to the new “Media Day” color scheme which was a huge hit in the sneaker community. 2020-21 appears to be the season of the Lebron 8 retros, with a few already having hit stores overseas.
