At the risk of sounding too harsh, it’s been easy to overlook the Charlotte Hornets in past years; not necessarily the pits of the NBA, but certainly not playoff contenders either. With a healthy Brandon Miller and the exceptional play of rookie Kon Knueppel, Charlotte is abuzz with their hottest streak in recent memory, heading into the All-Star break with a 14-6 record in their last 20 and among league leaders in net rating over that span.

Perhaps to ensure the focus remains on their level of play, LaMelo Ball is reversing course with his footwear line, embracing traditional camo print on the latest PUMA MB.05. For most, the last you heard from the silhouette was the rangey Fast and Furious collection, so taking things down a notch is an understandable choice. Still, graphic prints make for a suitable choice on the expressive silhouette, returning to a clear favorite of ‘Melo’s that we first came across on his initial sig shoe.

The PUMA MB.05 “Camo” doesn’t have a concrete release date yet, but PUMA has stuck to a monthly/bimonthly schedule with the basketball model. This pair is likely tabbed for a mid-March or early April drop. Be ready for the usual $120 sticker price if you’re aiming to grab a pair.
