LaMelo Ball has made a big splash in the NBA during the 2021-2022 season, averaging around 19 points, 7 rebounds and 7 assists. The potential future superstar has not only been making waves in the NBA, but the sneaker world as well with his signature model by way of Puma. With a "Grey Infrared" colorway as well as a "Rick and Morty" collab on the way, Puma is ready with they next drop. Coming in the same color as his Charlotte Hornets alternate jersey, this Puma MB.01 is known as the “Buzz City” edition.
Kitted in an almost all black look, the “Buzz City'' details are seen throughout the model. A black monomesh underlay provides support for the plastic fuse overlays running along the mudguard and eyelets of the upper. Popping off the black, teal colored accents used by the NBA team employing Melo can be spotted on the Puma logo on the toe cap, knitted wing details across the mid foot and heel, as well as branding throughout the upper. Under foot, the all black midsole houses the Nitro-foam cushioning providing a comfortable, yet stable experience. Heading to the outsole, the tractioned black translucent rubber outsole sports the word “Rare” underneath.
