Atlanta gets a bad rap as a sports town due to some bad luck and fairweather fans (who are actually just transplants from other cities). But the bond between organizations and players is unlike any other in the country.

Braves second baseman Ozzie Albies and pitcher Max Fried sat courtside for Sunday night's NBA Playoff game between the Hawks and Boston Celtics. The Hawks came up short in Game 4, but the game wasn't a total loss.

Fans in attendance got to see two MLB stars, and the ever-stylish Albies got a solid outfit off for the big game. Albies wore a personalized Hawks jersey and Nike shoes from LeBron James' signature line.

The shoes worn by Albies were the Nike LeBron 19 in the 'Hard Hat' colorway. The shoes launched in June 2022 for $200. Fans should be able to find the performance basketball shoes around the retail price of most sneaker resale websites.

The Nike LeBron 19 'Hard Hat' is enveloped in University Gold sans black detailing throughout the shoe. James wore the model in Space Jam 2 and throughout the 2021-22 NBA season.

It is hard to complain about the technology and performance of the James' 19th signature shoe. However, its successor, the Nike LeBron 20, has it beat in performance and appearance.

This entire season has been one long coronation of James as he became the league's all-time leading scorer and celebrated two decades with Nike. Fans can shop James' entire collection on the Nike website.

As for Albies, we cannot wait to see what footwear he shows off next. The Nike-sponsored athlete always impresses with his sneaker rotation. Stay locked into FanNation Kicks for all your footwear news.
