Kicks On Court: New PEs Debuted in Annual UK vs. UNC Matchup

This post may contain affiliate links. Please read our disclosure policy.

The annual matchup between perennial basketball powerhouses University of Kentucky and University of North Carolina took place at the famous Rupp arena earlier today. The Wildcats survived the Tar Heels in a one-point win thanks to freshman Anthony Davis’ timely block on John Henson in the closing seconds of the game. The game was filled with memorable plays (like the aforementioned block) and the debut of multiple PEs on the hardwood. In detail, a few of the UNC players rocked a never-before-seen Jordan CP3.V PE that features a grey and university blue upper. On the contrary, a couple of the Kentucky players finally laced up the ‘Home’ version of the Nike LeBron 9 Kentucky PE. Check out these kicks, plus more, in our Kicks On Court recap.
