The new colorway features Maddox’s favorite color and, according to Adidas’ announcement, “a futuristic design with meticulous precision along with innovative features crafted to Ant’s specifications.”
Those specifications include generative support wing for more stability, jet boost for more energy return and cushion, and herringbone outsoles for better traction on the basketball court.
The “Nick’s Gift” colorway will be available for $110.
Meanwhile, Edwards’ Minnesota Timberwolves are 4-1 in the last five games as they look to put an inconsistent start to the season in the rearview mirror. They are 12-11 on the campaign and sitting in ninth place in the Western Conference as they continue to adjust to trading away Karl-Anthony Towns this offseason.
Edwards has remained a bright spot and is averaging 26.4 points, 5.4 rebounds, 4.0 assists and 1.4 steals per game.
Minnesota will need him to continue playing at a high level during an upcoming stretch of seven Western Conference opponents in the next nine games, including a Christmas Day showdown against the Dallas Mavericks.
