Every NBA player’s footwear preferences are different. In an interview with Express News, San Antonio Spurs equipment manager Travis Wade revealed some of the Spurs’ players seasonal rotations vary greatly depending on their position and status within the team. Kawhi Leonard has been rocking the Air Jordan 31 throughout the season in a number of his ‘The Claw’ themed player exclusives, and according to Wade, Kawhi usually needs a new pair every 4th game. Leonard isn’t the type of player to demand new shoes either, it’s just that his high-intensity level of play usually beats up his Jordan 31s within the span of four games. Other callouts from the article include how Tim Duncan played in the same pair of shoes until the laces ripped and Manu Ginobili can wear a pair up to half of the season. Check out the full story here and stay tuned to see what Kawhi laces up tonight in Game 6 of the Western Conference Semi-Finals against the Houston Rockets.
