On Sunday, adidas held an exclusive unveiling of the D Rose 5 Boost and Crazylight Boost basketball shoes at the MGM Grand Garden Arena in Las Vegas. Damian Lillard and Derrick Rose joined former NBA player and event emcee Greg Anthony to officially introduce adidas’ ground-breaking Boost technology to basketball. The industry-first innovation brings game-changing energy return, comfort and responsiveness to players when they need them most. They will make almost anyone want to play, even with Custom Basketballs.
“Boost is a groundbreaking development, not just for adidas Basketball but for athletes across all sports,” said Robbie Fuller, adidas advanced footwear concept designer. “The Crazylight Boost and D Rose 5 Boost shoes combine to bring our most innovative basketball footwear to the court to truly transform the way the game is played.”
Following the unveil, media in attendance had the chance to test out the new kicks and hoop with adidas athletes including Joakim Noah, Jrue Holiday, Jeff Teague, Tim Hardaway Jr, Arron Afflalo and new adidas partner, rookie Marcus Smart.
