Nepotism is out of control these days
1st signature shoe of Drederick’s line?
The Reverse Nepo 1s
Nepo Daddy
This is a very Kyrie move.
You can just give him money man
That’s crazy leverage. I doubt even New Balance would let Steph license some Dell Curry shoes.
Edit: Meant Under Armour duh.
There are like 3 different joke avenues to take here, I don’t even know where to start. Nepo daddy, LeBron father figure, uncle drew shoe, etc?
You’ve heard of Nepo Baby but what about Nepo Daddy?
reverse Big Baller Brand with Kyrie being Lavar this time
ANTA Semitic 1s
they ship out with flat world rate shipping.
lebron already has his shoes..
is that what brunson will do?
>This marks the first time in pro sports a player has signed his dad to a signature shoe deal.
Drederick Irving +250 GOAT Points
Using “signature athlete” pretty loosely here
Can’t wait to pickup my pair of ANTA Kyrie’s Dad 1’s
Great the Dads can retire their Nike Monarchs and get the Kyrie Pops 1
lol I thought it was dope, said he will have his own shoe in the fall as well.
When will he sign Drederick’s brother, Andrew?
Thank goodness we have Shams to report on this
I think he’s missing the point of the dad shoe trend.
Btw who thinks ‘I can’t wait to buy the shoes of my favorite player…..’s father?’
2024 is truly the year of nepotism for the NBA. Son getting a NBA roster spot due to who his father is. Nephew potentially getting a NBA roster spot due to who his uncle is. Father getting a shoe deal due to who his son is.
Are they gonna look like dad shoes too?
Gives a new meaning to dad shoes.
Drederick Irving is Kyrie Irving father
Nepo ~~ba~~ daddy?
Oh shiiii boy you got them dredricks on tho?
LeBron 1s are Kyrie’s shoe father
Bruh this is so funny to me. Good for including your dad but kinda like giving your kid a participation trophy
A lot of jokes in here but this is dope. Honor your father
I am still really upset Kyrie ruined the deal with Nike, Kyries were the flyest shoes always
I thought LeBron was his father, is he stupid?
Drederick is like a father figure for Kyrie
But Lebron already has his own shoe line…
But Lebron is with Nike
What kind of name is Drederick anyways?
> This marks the first time in pro sports a player has signed his dad to a signature shoe deal.
This is an incredibly stupid first that only a corporate stooge would think to write. Shams should get shit on much more for being a corporate mouthpiece.
Like, are people really gonna buy this on the open market or is this just a symbolic gesture, and they’ll just produce enough for Kyrie to gift people?
I only have one father and thats drederick irving
OK but if someone signed their dad to a New Balance line it’d be the greatest marketing move of all time lol
This is gangster
I get the jokes, but being able to share your legacy with your pops is an all-time move. Being able to share in the gifts your people helped develop in you is so rewarding.
Was watching a thing about Kyrie, and they said his dad was at the World Trade Centre on 9/11.
