The NBA is heating up with both of its conference finals series taking place currently. Elsewhere in the league, teams have been preparing for the NBA Draft with the draft lottery having taken place earlier this week. Landing the second pick of the upcoming draft, LaMelo Ball and the Charlotte Hornets have much to look forward to. In the meantime, Ball continues his work with PUMA Hoops as his “Not From Here” PUMA MB.02 takes on new colorways.

The latest look to debut courtesy of the duo is an off-white “Whispers” presentation. A creamy “Frosted Ivory” spans across the MB.02 with its base covered in a darker hue than its signature overlays, including the wings graphics. Hits of black arrive at the tongue branding, medial wings and heel details while the shoe maintains its ivory shade elsewhere. The mid-top sneaker is court-ready with a NITRO midsole backing its design to complete the pair.

For those interested in picking up LaMelo Ball’s PUMA MB.02 “Whispers,” it is scheduled to release on May 26 at 10am EDT via PUMA at a price of $130 USD.

In other exciting news in the footwear world, Porsche Design has teamed up with PUMA for a new 3D-printed sneaker design that features a special recovery system.
