LeBron James Wears Ohio State Player-Exclusive Shoes
March Madness is over, but that is not stopping LeBron James from celebrating his adopted alma mater. On Wednesday night, James led the Los Angeles Lakers with 33 points in a losing effort to the Los Angeles Clippers.
During the vintage performance, James wore his 20th signature basketball shoe with Nike in a player-exclusive colorway. James wore the same colorway of the Nike LeBron 20 we saw the Ohio State Buckeyes basketball team debut back in November.
This is not the first time James has shown love to college basketball programs. Throughout the season, James has worn multiple colorways of the Nike LeBron 20 in orange and green Floria A&M Rattlers designs.
Unfortunately for fans, the player-exclusive colorways will never hit shelves. The silver lining is several colorways of the Nike LeBron 20 are available at or below the retail price on the Nike website. Below is what you must know about the performance basketball shoes.

This season has been a legacy-defining year for James. Not only did he break the NBA's all-time scoring record, but he is celebrating two decades with Nike. Moreover, these monumental achievements coincided with one of the best releases from his signature sneaker line in years.
The Nike LeBron 20 was the first model from James' line to launch in a low-cut silhouette. According to Nike, the model is tailored to the exact specifications of James but designed with the next generation of players in mind.
Players have loved the large Zoom Air units in the forefoot and heel. Meanwhile, the synthetic-wrapped lateral guardrail and carbon fiber midfoot plate provide added stability on the hardwood.
The Lakers are gearing up for another postseason run, which only makes the Nike LeBron 20 more legendary. Fans cannot afford to sleep on the legendary hoop shoes as they are sure to go down in hoops history.
