Paige Bueckers is looking like she was worth the investment. The No. 1 overall pick of the 2025 WNBA Draft for the Dallas Wings has been putting on a show this season, averaging an extremely efficient 19.8 points per game while shooting 53.1% from the field, along with 4.7 rebounds and 4.7 assists per game. Safe to say she's performing at number-one-pick standards—and it’s only up from here for the 23-year-old.
This week, the Nike athlete popped out with the 4th iteration of the Nike G.T. Cut series, a favorite among hoopers. Nike is totally revamping this shoe and bringing a shark-like look to the table with these kicks.
This is definitely giving great white shark vibes. The entire look of the sneaker has changed—and I’m all here for it. This colorway needs a name that matches the vibe of the iconic sea creature. According to Just Fresh Kicks on Instagram, these are set to drop in January 2026. Here's a look from Raba Kali on Instagram.
The WNBA All-Star Weekend releases and reveals for basketball shoes have been monumental. A’ja Wilson was stepping in a new variant of her hot Nike A’Ones. The Kobe 6 Protro “Total Orange” dropped too, which Caitlin Clark rocked. The Kobes were perfect for the moment—the sneakers synced perfectly with the All-Star colors.
Fear not, basketball shoe fans. The releases and news won’t be slowing down anytime soon. But this week? This week has been a boiling point for the sneaker game. Stay locked in so you don’t miss anything—and check out the articles below for more like this.
