Week 6 in this young NBA season saw the Lakers’ 10-game winning streak finally come to an end. The Bucks and Lakers are still the top 2 teams in the league heading into the first full week of December. Is the Warriors’ dynasty (temporarily) over? The five-time defending Western Conference Champions officially hold the league’s worst record at 4-18 overall. James Harden continues to put up huge numbers, with not even needing a full game to do so. Harden dropped 60 points in only 3 quarters of play – oddly finishing just one point shy of his career high. Who knows what Harden could’ve ended up with had his team needed him the entire game and weren’t up by 50. Luka Doncic is wowing crowds on a nightly basis as his Mavs haulted the Lakers’ longest winning streak of the season. Some analysts even have Doncic in the MVP discussion along with the likes of Lebron, Giannis, and Harden.
Perhaps the biggest sneaker news of the week was P.J. Tucker re-signing with Nike. The Houston sharp-shooter inked a multi-year six-figure endorsement deal with the Swoosh. Tucker has such a following of people who are interested to see what he wears on a nightly basis, which is a unique circumstance for a player who has never had a signature shoe of their own. There was much speculation as to if Tucker would leave Nike and sign with a competitor but in the end P.J. ended up back with the brand that got him the notoriety in the sneaker game. Look below to see what were the top kicks that graced the court during week 6.
