Jayson Tatum Pops With Pink Pregame Outfit

Jayson Tatum wore pink Air Jordan sneakers before the Boston Celtics played the Dallas Mavericks.
In this story:

There were only a handful of NBA games played on Thursday night. The shortage of hoops put all eyes on the nationally-televised game between the Boston Celtics and the Dallas Mavericks.

Boston dominated Dallas 124-95 thanks to another stellar performance from Celtics forward Jayson Tatum. The All-Star forward logged 29 points, 14 rebounds, and ten assists.

Of course, our focus is always on players' footwear. Tatum competed in the unreleased Air Jordan 37 Low. But before the game, Tatum turned necks with his pink and black pregame outfit punctuated by matching retro Air Jordan sneakers.

Tatum is a Jordan Brand athlete with his first signature sneaker expected to launch this spring. While we wait on the Jordan Tatum 1, the shoe's namesake is keeping us entertained with what he's wearing on and off the court.

A detailed look at the Air Jordan 1 Low / Nike

Tatum wore the Air Jordan 1 Low in the 'Fuchsia' colorway. The old-school basketball shoes were released on May 1, 2020, for $100. They have since sold out and now have an average resale price of $161, according to StockX.

The low-cut model features a white upper with black leather overlays to match the Swoosh logo. Additionally, pink suede around the heel and ankle collar matches the laces and outsole.

Luckily for fans who do not want to pay resale prices, there are several other colorways of the Air Jordan 1 Low to choose from on the Nike website. Despite being over three decades old, the first Air Jordan model remains a top choice among sneakerheads.
