LeBron James Debuts All Black Sneakers During First Look At Sixers Superstar Trio
LeBron James is already making a statement with his offseason style after debuting a sleek pair of all black sneakers during a training session in Los Angeles alongside new Philadelphia 76ers teammates Tyrese Maxey and Jaylen Brown.
The workout offered an early glimpse at Philadelphia’s newly assembled superstar group as the trio worked through game situations ahead of the upcoming NBA season.
LeBron Keeps His Training Look Locked In Ahead Of LeBron 24
James represented Nike during the workout, wearing the blackout sneakers just one week after teasing his upcoming LeBron 24 signature shoe line.
The new models are expected to continue James’ signature footwear legacy as he prepares for his 24th NBA season, with the shoe reportedly designed to be his lightest model yet.
Maxey And Brown Bring Their Own Footwear Brands To The Floor
The sneaker lineup inside the gym was almost as interesting as the workout itself.
Maxey trained in his New Balance Maxey v1 signature sneaker, which features the brand’s FuelCell cushioning technology.
Meanwhile, Brown represented his independent 741 brand, giving the workout a mix of three very different basketball footwear identities.
The New Sixers Trio Wastes No Time Building Chemistry
The 81 second workout footage quickly gained attention online, but the biggest takeaway was what the players were actually doing on the court.
Rather than simply going through individual drills, James, Maxey and Brown worked through fast paced decision making situations involving short shot clock scenarios.
The session featured James and Maxey working through pick and roll actions, while Brown showed off his ability to orchestrate the floor and connect with James on alley oop finishes.
Philadelphia’s New Era Is Already Taking Shape
The early workout represents an important first look at what Philadelphia hopes can become a championship level combination.
With James and Brown joining Maxey, the Sixers have put together a dramatically different roster and are now tasked with developing chemistry before the regular season begins.
The trio’s willingness to get on the floor together early suggests the work has already started well before the official start of training camp.
The Sneaker Debut May Be Just The Beginning
For LeBron, the workout was more than another offseason training session. It also gave fans an early look at the footwear era surrounding his upcoming 24th signature sneaker.
Between a new team, a new superstar trio and a new signature shoe on the horizon, James has plenty of eyes on what comes next.
The sneakers may have been all black, but the spotlight surrounding this new chapter in Philadelphia is anything but.
