She's leading the Atlanta Dream in rebounding with 7.8 per game while adding 13.8 PPG as their active post player. Rocking the Nike KD 18 throughout the season, she debuts the “All-Star” colorway for the first time.

Brionna Jones' Nike KD 18 “All-Star”


Per @SoleRetriever coverage, Brionna Jones laced up an unreleased colorway of the Nike KD 18. The shoes appear in a predominantly black look, based on the classic construction of the Nike Air Terra Humara. The shoes are black throughout the uppers with yellow-to-red gradient throughout the mesh underlayer. The back heel and the ankle collar feature a similar gradient complete with flames, the theme throughout Nike's WNBA All-Star sneakers.

As for a public release, we're not sure whether Nike will drop the collection to the public, but previous All-Star releases in the NBA have suggested their could be a roll-out for this series. The Nike KD 18 is currently available for $160 as new colorways begin to arrive, but we'll have to keep these on the back burner for now.
