The Nike Ja 1 is a game-changing sneaker that is set to redefine the way the game is played. Despite Ja Morant’s off-court troubles (currently suspended for 25 games), Nike is continuing their relationship with the NBA star. To say the least, the 2022-2023 NBA season has been a turbulent one for Ja Morant and Memphis Grizzlies fans. However, Morant’s performance stood out as he led the team with an average of 24.6 points per game, despite their first-round exit in the 2023 playoffs.
Ja Morant signed a multiple-year deal with Nike back in 2019, and it looks like Nike is willing to at least see that deal out. Also, the Ja 1 is a low-top, versatile sneaker that allows Morant to build up the explosiveness he needs to create those highlight dunks. This pair in particular, dressed in vibrant shades of orange and blue, is the perfect combination of style and performance in a basketball sneaker.

“Bright Mandarin” Nike Ja 1
Regrettably, Nike will only release this pair in grade school sizing, which is unfortunate for adult basketball players. Bright Mandarin, Opti Yellow, Black, and Baltic Blue make up the bold color scheme of the Nike Ja 1. This sneaker, which is made of a mesh and leather blend, has distinctive wraparound Swoosh and Yellow mesh laces on an orange foundation. Also, the Blue “Ja” tongue branding and the embroidered number “12” on the heels further enhance its charm. A black midsole with speckles and a blue rubber outsole complete the look.
