    And it is, with Nike’s first 5 colorways for the King celebrating his skills at every position. This pair is set to represent his position at the three, where he truly is the King.

    On October 18th this year, LeBron starts the fourth chapter of his NBA career, where he will lace up these gems for the Los Angeles Lakers in Portland.
