According to a Tweet by Sole Collector, this was part of Reebok’s presentation to John Wall. Of course, we already know Wall won’t be No. 11, that’s reserved for Elvin Hayes.

When a first saw a picture of a Reebok’s Zag Slash (below), I was like ‘meh’ — the shoe has nice creativity in the sole and in the triangle design pattern, but I feel like the patent leather (or pleather) shine is getting played out and the huge ‘Reebok’ text is a little blaring.

On the other hand, they look damn good in Wizards colors — while they’re still around — and on John Wall’s feet.

Also, big thanks to my man Jeris (@CarbonPrimo) for the heads up on the shoes.
