It is nearly impossible for a signature shoe athlete to get every player on his team to wear his particular shoe seeing that each team has a roster full of players that have contractual agreements with various brands. Yet, each signature athlete in the NBA has a small roster of players that either help promote the latest shoe or find the respective shoe to be the most comfortable or stylish in their own eyes. With that mind, we take a look at the unofficial “sneaker teams” of seven signature players in the NBA today.

Point Guards: Shabazz Napier, Trey Burke, Pablo Prigioni, Shelvin Mack
Wingmen: Kobe Bryant, DeMar DeRozan, Nick Young, Manu Ginobili, Dion Waiters, Gary Neal, Wesley Johnson
Big Men: Larry Sanders, Jordan Hill
