Andrew Rizzo Update: Skechers is releasing OG Anunoby’s “NYC Blue” PE of the SKX Nexus sneaker. The Knicks champion wore this sneaker during Game 4 when he helped carry the Knicks’ insane come-back and capped it off with a tip-in for the ages. The pre-order will be available on July 1st at 10 AM ET HERE for $120.
The biggest play in New York Knicks history belongs to OG Anunoby, and by extension, Skechers. The Knicks’ defensive anchor won Game 4 of the NBA Finals with a heads-up tip-in with less than two seconds on the clock, singlehandedly swinging all momentum back to New York with the Knicks now 48 minutes away from their first NBA Championship in over half a century.
On foot for the occasion was the Skechers SKX Nexus “NYC Blue,” the latest in a string of headline-worthy PEs following OG’s Timberland-inspired “Foreman” pair and the beige colorway he gifted to Martha Stewart. OG’s signature logo appears on the tongue in orange, complemented by matching hits on the laces and lateral Skechers logo.
June 10th, 2026 is a date that will forever be remembered in the hearts of New York Knicks fans. Game 4 of the NBA Finals was a tale of two halves. The first belonged entirely to the San Antonio Spurs, who set an NBA Finals record for three-pointers made in a half on their way to a 29-point lead. The anxiety inside Madison Square Garden was suffocating. A series tied 2-2, momentum hemorrhaging toward San Antonio, the ghost of every Knicks heartbreak hovering just overhead.
Then the New York Knicks said f**k that. What followed was the greatest comeback in NBA Finals history, Jalen Brunson, Jose Alvarado, and OG Anunoby willing the Knicks back into it through the fourth quarter until it was a one-possession game in the final seconds. Brunson missed a potential go-ahead three. And then OG Anunoby, crashing the boards like a phoenix, tipped one in with less than two seconds on the clock. That’s statue s**t right there.
OG Anunoby’s “NYC Blue” Skechers aren’t expected to release as of this writing, but given the well-earned spotlight they’re about to receive, we wouldn’t be surprised to see that change. See detailed pics below and hit our Sneaker Release Dates page to browse upcoming basketball shoes.
