While the new NBA season is upon us, adidas is continuing to make moves with its basketball roster with the addition of New York Knicks’ fan favorite, Kristaps Porzingis. Originally a member of the Nike team, the NBA sophomore will place the Nike Kobe X Elite Hi on the shelf in exchange for one of adidas’s newest basketball models, the Crazy Explosive. As the New York Knicks hit the road and head to Cleveland to face the Cavaliers on the season’s opening night, it’ll be the first time we’ll see KP in the Three Stripes, and you can bet that he’ll be rocking them in Knicks coloring.
