The last full week of regular season NBA basketball is coming to an end. Whether your team has clenched a spot or your star player is sitting out for the remainder of the season, we can all find solace in the fact that the shoes are still coming in hot.

We saw a lot of must-have Kobes as Mamba Day approaches next weekend. Russ paid tribute to Pokemon. DeMar DeRozan brought out another fire Kobe 4 Protro. All in all, a solid week all around.

The regular season is facing its curtain call. But don’t sweat it; we’ll have all of your NBA sneaker coverage here at Nice Kicks until the end of playoffs. Take a look at the shoe below, and let us know your favorites on Instagram.
