Stealing majority of the headlines was Chicago Bulls point guard Derrick Rose, who made his long waited return to basketball and looked a lot like his old self in the new adidas D Rose 5 Boost.

As for the other kicks that hit the court, it was a day of debuts. John Wall laced up his upcoming signature shoe, Anthony Davis broke out the Hyperposite 2 for the first time and Dame Lillard broke out the Crazylight Boost in a USA-themed colorway.
