For the first of their four meetings this season, Houston Rockets guard James Harden seemingly paid tribute to a departing Kobe Bryant by lacing up hisĀ first adidas signature shoe.
As Nick Young made his debut as an official adidas athlete in Yeezys for the visitors, Harden broke out the metallic silver adidas Crazy 1, formerly known as the Kobe. The model originally released in 2000 and was most recently re-released in several colorways between 2013 and 2014.
Bryant led the Lakers with 25 points, but Harden's 30 helped Houston roll to a 126-97 victory at home.
