Towards the tail-end of November, we shared news that Kawhi Leonard would be leaving Jordan Brand for New Balance. Today, NB officially announces “The Klaw” as a member of its team.

The former NBA Champion and three-time NBA All-Star has been sporting some of New Balance’s casual models prior to games, while hitting the hardwood in Jordan Brand kicks, his previous endorser. That will soon change as New Balance’s forthcoming hoop shoe will be revealed during All-Star weekend.

Take a look at the new Kawhi Leonard x New Balance introduction above and let us know what type of model you’re expecting to be revealed.
