For the past week in Las Vegas, NBA rookies, journeymen and training camp hopefuls alike have been battling it out during the Association’s annual Summer League, hoping to make their mark in just a handful of games to continue their pro pursuits later this fall.
Throughout the NBA’s regular season, players have to abide by a series of color restrictions for all but a few theme nights and mostly match their team’s unis. No such rules exist in Summer League, but there’s understandably less players looking to stand out with their kicks, with the focus more on the game as just a few roster slots are up for grabs.
Check out all of the best sneakers spotted in Las Vegas over the past week, with some highlights thanks to Willie Cauley-Stein, Emmanuel Mudiay and Pierre Jackson, and let us know your favorites in the comments section below.
You can catch the Phoenix Suns and San Antonio Spurs face off tonight in the Summer League Finals at 9 PM EST on NBA TV.
