Giannis Antetokounmpo has largely become one of the faces of the NBA, both for his on-court play and his sneakers. While his first signature sneaker remained on the subtle side, his second has looked to break the internet. Unveiled during the beginning stages of the NBA bubble, the Nike Zoom Freak 2 has embodied the league’s best coast-to-coast player: dynamic, fast, and explosive. The Nike Zoom Freak 2 is releasing in a “White Cement” variation.

Antetokounmpo’s second sneaker features a largely more aesthetically pleasing silhouette than its predecessor, constructed with a sleeker shape. This edition is dressed in a white upper, which is then contrasted by vast grey hits across the midsole and heel. Undeniably present, the black Nike Swoosh branding streaks across the mid-portion of the sneaker. Stacked with Zoom Air in the forefoot for additional cushioning and TPU pieces for stability, expect this sneaker to be a great performer on the court and perhaps even a part of one’s casual rotation.

Look for this Nike Zoom Freak 2 to release soon for $130 on Nike.com.

The Nike Zoom Freak 2 was recently announced as the MVP makes another leap in his career with the newest chapter of his signature shoe line. The Greek Freak’s second signature shoe features prominent components that only accentuate the forward’s already stacked arsenal.

The shoe’s design is engineered for his Euroestep move with outriggers that allow him to move through the defense with swiftness. The forefoot of the shoe features a double-stacked Zoom Air unit for a spring-like feeling that allows Giannis to hit another gear in his stride. The sneaker’s unveiling teased four colorways, including the Nike Zoom Freak 2 “Naija,” which will kick things off for the Zoom Freak 2.

Despite his nickname, the Greek Freak always pays homage to his Nigerian roots as the Nike Zoom Freak 2 continues the tradition of combining performance with storytelling components that encompass Giannis’s family and his journey to stardom. The “Naija” iteration features a leaf pattern on the upper as the entire shoe features the colors of the Nigerian flag with a zig-zag pattern on the tongue and collar of the shoe.

Take a detailed look at the upcoming colorways ahead of its SNKRS debut. Keep it locked on Nice Kicks for everything Nike Basketball as the NBA restart is on its way.
