Mac McClung had one of the best dunk contest showings since Aaron Gordon and Zach LaVine duked it out in 2016. LeBron and Giannis drafted their teams as if they were on the blacktop and Jayson Tatum dropped 55 points in the debut of his signature shoe. All in all, it’s safe to say that it was a pretty decent All-Star Weekend out in Salt Lake City.

The sneaker game, of course, made sure not to disappoint. From colorful concoctions with meaningful inspirations to iconic colorways and specially crafted PEs, we’ve curtailed the best sneaker appearances from the NBA’s celebratory mid-season mark.

Inspired by 2018’s NRG Pack, each low-top featured titular homages to the “Buerdaux”, “Taxi” and “Bright Concord” schemes.

Rocking the PUMA Rise Nitro in its “Fiery Coral/Lime Squeeze” composition, the high-flying extravaganza certainly won’t be the last time we see McClung dawning a loud pair of PUMA’s.

Sustaining a finger injury just before halftime, LeBron may not have played the remainder of the All-Star Game, but in the first half we were treated to flipped color blocking of the recently released Shines in a Purple Pony & Thigh-High Boots at Coachella “All-Star”. Maintaining its widely-popularized reverse Swoosh, the formerly accenting light neon coated the entirety of the upper while sky blue Checks accented the brightened ensemble.
