Initially debuted in concert with the start of the 2022-23 NBA season, LaMelo Ball’s second signature silhouette with PUMA has enjoyed an expansive range of colorways from a Rick and Morty sequel to the return of the widely-adorned “Galaxy” aesthetic. While the former Rookie of the Year will most likely be suiting up in the MB.03 come this fall, the German-based brand remains steadfast on employing new editions of the MB.02 throughout the summer.

Recently the nitrogen-injected proposition received a clad coat of “Frosted Ivory” for a striking appearance on the AAU circuit or blacktop. Dressed from the nylon liner to its tread, the near entirety of the engineered mesh upper comes cured in the dominant Off-White scheme alongside its TPU winged overlays and sole unit underfoot. However, the pair is not entirely monochrome as “Puma Black” hues are added into the mix via the various branded embellishments and finishing with a seldom medial mid-foot accent.

Currently scheduled to release in Japan next Friday, May 26th, enjoy official imagery of the Puma MB.02 “Whispers” below as we await news regarding a stateside drop in the near future.
