LeBron James showed up in the Los Angeles Lakers’ much-awaited preseason debut in a pair of LeBron 16 low “Agimat” against the Golden State Warriors at the newly-opened Chase Center in San Franciso Sunday (Manila time).
The sneaker, which pays homage to the Filipino warrior, is a collaboration between Titan, the first and only basketball specialty concept store in the country, and sports giant Nike.
James, who is in his 17th NBA season, finished with 15 points and eight assists in just 17 minutes as he and fellow superstar Anthony Davis led the Lakers’ 123-101 win over the Warriors.
Davis had 22 points and 10 rebounds in only 18 minutes in his Lakers debut.
