If you don’t follow the NBA closely, it might shock you to learn that Pau Gasol is probably the best center in the world right now. Sure, his shoulders are nowhere near as impressive as Dwight Howard’s, nor can his legacy fully measure up to Tim Duncan’s, but Gasol was the key in taking the Lakers from the bottom of the playoff bracket to three straight NBA Finals appearances and two crowns. And over the past few years, the older Gasol brother has consistently rocked kicks from Nike Basketball’s ever-expanding Hyper- caprice. The latest is this sick Air Max 428 for home games at Staples Center, one that borrows the gradient that’s made for so many satisfying Zoom Kobe colorways and applies it to a mostly-white base. Expect these to hit select US retailers (probably House of Hoops) soon, and in the mean time, be sure to check out more shots after the jump. via IST
