As a native Californian, there’s no question that DeMar looked up to Kobe during the now-retired baller’s championship years with the Lakers – so much so that rumors of DeMar signing with LA swirled around rather heavily during the offseason. Instead, he stayed put in Toronto, signed a max contract, and is now entering his prime and enjoying the best start he’s ever had in the NBA. DeMar won’t be in a Lakers uniform anytime soon, but he’s repping the Kobe hard with this Kobe AD PE that Nike just unveiled, and we suspect this won’t be the last. You might spot these on his feet tonight against the Cavs, so tune into tonight’s game and craft your own Nike Kobe AD colorway now on NIKEiD.
