Editor’s Notes: After P. J. Tucker shared his Nike Kobe 5 Protro PE with us several months ago, Nike has shared official product imager of DeMar DeRozan’s PE, which features the same hypnotic design as Tucker’s, albeit in San Antonio Spurs colors. DeRozan grew up in Compton, California and idolized Kobe as a kid, which is why he’s one of a few select players to get their own Kobe Protro PE.

The sneaker is set to drop on September 18 for $180 on Nike SNKRS in the USA.
