In this story:

Another day, another opportunity is more than a catchy saying for Atlanta Hawks point guard Trae Young. It's a way of life for the 2x NBA All-Star. Since the Hawks went home early in the playoffs, the face of their franchise is making the most out of the offseason.

Earlier this month, Young teased his third signature adidas basketball shoe on social media. Unfortunately, leaked images of the unreleased sneaker had already been circulating online for days.

So, what does Young do? The 24-year-old quickly accelerated his timeline and unveiled the shoes in a heartwarming moment on social media. Young used his son's first birthday to share the third installment of his signature shoe alongside all three generations of the Young men.

Adidas has not released any information regarding Young's newest shoe, but the German brand is already moving ahead of schedule. The adidas Trae Young 2.0 was not unveiled until September 2022 before launching two months later for $140 in adult sizes.

However, the adidas Trae Young 3.0 is rumored to release in September 2023. Multiple colorways have already surfaced thanks to unofficial images online. While there are no tech specs available at this time, it is safe to assume the performance model will feature BOOST and Lightstrike cushioning once again.

Judging by fans' reactions online, the third installment of Young's signature sneaker line will be much better received than its predecessor. Stay locked into FanNationKicks.com for more updates on this story and all of your footwear coverage.
