The NBA draft has been the site of some debatable decisions over the years, Sam Bowie over Michael Jordan, Shawn Bradley over Penny Hardaway, Kwame Brown going 27 spots before Tony Parker, you get the idea.
Of course, another all-time great at the center of a draft day ‘what if,’ is Kobe Bryant, who for a matter of minutes was a Charlotte Hornet, before being dealt to the Lakers for center Vlade Divac.
The latest edition of the Zoom Kobe 4 Protro sees the dynamic, lightweight, Flywire construction, phylon midsole and combination LunarLite/Zoom Air cushioning decked out in the unmistakable purple and teal livery of the Hornets, in honor of Charlotte playing host to All-Star Weekend 2019. The footbed design puts the finishing touch on this tribute to the very start of Kobe’s NBA career, with a honeycomb pattern featuring the date of the 1996 Draft, June 26, 1996.
