For the last eight months, Utah Jazz center Mehmet Okur has been laying low while rehabbing a torn left Achilles' tendon. The former All-Star recently returned to the court, helping Utah stay in the thick of the Western Conference playoff chase. Okur has started off his 2010-2011 campaign wearing Player Exclusive colorways of the Nike Shox BB Pro. Here's a look at what he's lacing up for Utah's road games.
Black leather takes care of majority of the upper, leaving dark green ribbed panels to take care of the sides and upper heel. The inner bootie and Shox columns are done in the same color. Blue hits the external heel counter, Swoosh border and various minor detail points throughout. Okur's nickname "Memo" is stitched in green on the tongue.
Look for these on the court Friday night when the Jazz travel to Boston to take on the Celtics.
