Following Thursday's unveiling, the Air Jordan XX9 finally made its on-court debut in the playoff opener between the Memphis Grizzlies and Oklahoma City Thunder.

The first player to lace up the new game shoe was Russell Westbrook, Air Jordan lead for the past two seasons. His OKC-inspired 'Home' colorway is white-based with photo blue elephant print and branding, orange trim and a translucent outsole. Whether or not we'll see Westbrook's PE release is unknown at the moment.

Check out several shots from yesterday's game and let us known what you think about the XX9 in a new colorway.
