Chris Paul is the envy of all sneakerheads out there after he was gifted a special pair of Jordan’s from Kobe Bryant, along with their own special message. These are the same kicks everyone is hoping that Nike actually releases to the public later on this year.

CP3 was quick to flex on social media with his gift. On the sneakers, Kobe wrote “To my brother CP one of the greatest competitors of all time!”
It’s still somewhat crazy to see these two guys embrace after their final game against each other this week, knowing they really should have been teammates for years already. Thanks to former commissioner, David Stern, the trade that sent Paul to the Lakers was quickly vetoed by the league in what people still think was a conspiracy to try and help the New Orleans Hornets, Paul’s team at the time. Who knows how things would have worked out if everything went through but for now Paul is just happy being good friends.
