Nike Basketball will be holding an event in NYC next Wednesday, and it looks like it could be an epic one. Specifics are not yet known, but it might be centered around one of its premier athletes, Kobe Bryant.
Nike PR Manager Heidi Burgett recently shared a minute-long video of Kobe speaking generally about his signature sneaker line with Nike. 'The most special is when I line up on the court and I see a competitor wearing my signature shoe," Kobe said. "Not because he wants to be you or have a part of you. It's because it's just a great basketball shoe."
Could this be the unveiling of the Nike Kobe X? Considering The Black Mamba has been hooping in the 9 to start the season, and Nike Basketball cohorts LeBron James and Kevin Durant already have their new sneakers, it's a real possibility that we'll be seeing the X.
RSVP here and make sure to tune in to the live stream.
