The NBA Playoffs have heated up with four explosive second round match-ups featuring powerhouses such as the Denver Nuggets and Boston Celtics. For the Charlotte Hornets, they’re laying low after a season riddled with injuries and are anxiously awaiting next week’s NBA Draft Lottery. Without star point guard LaMelo Ball for a majority of the past season, they finished at a 27-55 record. However, this hasn’t stopped Ball from winning elsewhere.

Having introduced the MB.02 with PUMA Hoops last October, Ball has since outfitted the court-ready sneaker in a bevy of electric looks — from a Nickelodeon collaboration to a celebration of Lunar New Year. Now, the duo has prepared a “Gorangé” colorway that takes a bold orange and fuses it with hits of gray. Ball’s typical motifs such as his “1 of 1” branding make a return while its typical NITRO-backed midsole offers extensive responsiveness.

For those interested in picking up a pair, LaMelo Ball’s PUMA MB.02 “Gorangé” is priced at $130 USD and is set to release on May 12 via PUMA and select PUMA Hoops retailers around the world.

For more of the latest news in the world of footwear, the PUMA Hoops team has joined forces with Breanna Stewart to assemble her second signature sneaker — the Stewie 2.
