Nike Zoom Kobe IV Draft Day Charlotte Hornets

 
The name Kobe Bryant is so synonymous with the Los Angeles Lakers that it is easy to forget that KB24 was actually drafted by the Charlotte Hornets in 1996. Kobe's draft rights were signed over to LA in exchange for Vlade Divac, and the rest, is history. To commemorate this vital piece of NBA history, Nike is set to release a Charlotte Hornets colorway of the Nike Zoom Kobe IV. The Draft Day Nike Zoom Kobe IV features a White upper with Teal and Purple accents. The day of the draft 6.11.96 is also emblazoned on the heel tab and on the footbed.
 
A release date for the Draft Day Charlotte Hornets Nike Zoom Kobe IV has not been confirmed, once we receive this info, it will be posted.

    Is there a colorway of this shoe that doesn't look good?

  • CJAXON

    The Colorways are fya but the shoe is suspect on ur foot.

  • Mr. XX3

    Draft day was actually on the 26th of June during 96, 11th of July was when he was traded.

  • http://kixandthecity.com PB

    Thats a pointless shoe, Kobe didn't even want to play for the Hornets and wanted to be traded before he even played a game for them. Such a stupid concept, almost a slap in the face.

  • http://www.mintunderground.com Sincere

    I don't even believe that it is the Charlotte Hornets colorways. I believe that it's the Minneapolis Lakers Colorway. That makes more sense to me, but hey...who am I? Nobody. JMO

  • ripochet

    See, I think they're tryin' to...Nevermind.

  • jay

    colorway is ok...6-11-96 was not the draft..the finals were not over yet..the finals that year ended 6-17-96 when mj rocked the bred xi on fathers day...get the date right....damn!

  • SicilyMoney

    good call, looked it up and the draft was 6-26-96, how the **** did they overlook that?

  • DBL S

    My dogs be on the lookout as these sick joints drop in July. There will also be a Beijing inspired Kobe in August and a Phila inspired later too. Great end to the IV line.

    The Hornets franchise will live in infamy, as the dumb a.s.s.e.s who traded Kobe Bryant for Vlade Divac!

    Sure, no one could've know, immidiately after draft night what good he would've been, they never even gave him a shot by keeping him at least a year. IDIOTS!

    But, who's to say KB would've even played as long in Charlotte/New Orleans, as he has in LA?? The world will never know!
