The 2012 Olympics in London are only five months away, which means that LeBron James, Kobe Bryant, Deron Williams and Kevin Durant will soon be on the court together defending their gold medals. Earlier today, Nike officially debuted the USA Basketball Hyper Elite Uniform, a fusion of the most technologically advanced textiles with the most up-to-date look. The Nike Hyper Elite shorts weigh in at 14 ounces lighter than the average shorts currently worn by professional players, while the Hyper Elite jerseys are currently the lightest ever created by Nike. Each jersey is composed of approximately 96% recycled polyester, and each one saving an average of 22 recycled plastic bottles. Check out additional studio photos of these jerseys below, as well as the Nike Pro Combat Hyperstrong 2.0 Vis-Deflex shirt and shorts, which provide superior protection.
