Robert Dillingham, the rookie selected by the Spurs with the No. 8 pick and later traded to the Minnesota Timberwolves, recently debuted the Nike Kobe 5 Protro "X-Ray" during training. This release marks the first time these striking sneakers have been seen on the court.
The design draws inspiration from the championship ring tee that Kobe Bryant wore, featuring an eye-catching X-ray-style graphic of five championship ringsāa tribute to the Mamba spirit and his legendary career. Even without the glow-in-the-dark effect, the sneakers are visually impressive.
The Nike Kobe 5 Protro "X-Ray" is set to release on October 31, priced at $190. Dillingham, a known Kobe fan, has often sported Kobe sneakers and frequently showcases his admiration for the late legend on his Instagram. As a new generation player embodying the Mamba mentality, fans are excited to see him shine in these iconic shoes this season.
