Memphis Grizzlies star Ja Morant is one of the most popular players in the NBA, and his signature Nike sneakers are also among the most popular shoes at every level of basketball. This ranges from youth basketball all the way up to other stars around the NBA rocking Morant’s sneakers, and one of the latest teams to show off their custom Ja 1 shoes was Duke basketball:
Tagging his former teammate Tyus Jones, who went to Duke, Morant reacted to the major college basketball program repping signature Ja 1 sneakers. This was really cool to see, especially since these were custom pairs that the players were wearing.
Morant’s influence across basketball is significant, and it’s something he clearly appreciates. Having gifted several pairs of his shoes to young hoopers, and always acknowledging when other players around the league are wearing them, Morant is appreciative of the support his first signature shoe has gotten.
Nike has a lot of high profile NBA players with signature shoes, but Morant has undoubtedly become one of their most successful athletes in this realm. It is just his first shoe, but Morant has proven to be a big time get for Nike. With the Duke Men’s basketball program repping the Ja 1 sneakers, Morant’s first Nike shoes have become even more popular than they already were.
