New York Knicks
Players to Watch: J.R. Smith, Carmelo Anthony, Amar’e Stoudemire, Iman Shumpert, Pablo Prigioni
Notable changes from last year: You know what to expect from J.R. Smith, or do you? Each season, the New Jersey native consistently sports a healthy diet of KDs, Kobes, LeBrons and Jordans. A debut of the Jordan Melo M11 should be near for Carmelo Anthony, Amar’e Stoudemire always laces up nice player exclusives, Iman Shumpert is the wild card on the team in regards to sneakers and Pablo Prigioni keeps his feet exclusively in the latest Kobes and NIKEiDs.
San Antonio Spurs
Players to Watch: Kawhi Leonard, Danny Green, Matt Bonner
Notable changes from last year: With Kawhi Leonard steadily growing into a big-time star in the league, we’re sure Jordan Brand will beef up on the perks and player exclusive for the small forward starting this season. Also, be on the lookout for a “Christmas Day” custom for Matt Bonner this season.
