With the big man injury bug being prevalent in Portland, forward LaMarcus Aldridge is left to shoulder most of the load. With one of the more versatile offensive arsenals amongst bigs in the NBA, Aldridge has been consistently solid since entering the league in 2006. Also a member of the Nike family, Aldridge has been hooked up with multiple Air Max Hyperdunk PEs heading into the season. Here's a closer look at a pair he's been wearing when the Blazers travel away from the Rose Garden.
Aldridge's sleek away PE features a black leather base with red hits on the Swoosh, cross-strap and heel branding, buckle and dubres. His nickname, "L-Smooth," also appears on the tongue in red. Black returns for the midsole and a healthy portion of the outsole, which encases a red full-length Air unit.
Remember, you can pick up Aldridge's red on red player edition Air Max Hyperdunk 2010 at House of Hoops.
