All eyes were on the 2021 NBA Draft as the next generation of stars looks to leave its mark on the court. As the new rookie class makes their way to their new homes, the Three Stripes has officially announced its stacked class, headlined by the no.2 overall pick Jalen Green.
“adidas has been a part of my life for a while now, and when the opportunity arose to join the brand leading up to my rookie year, I thought, why not join the family? They’ve always accepted me as family and shown love,” said Jalen Green. “On the court, I’m going to bring excitement and a winning mentality to the next level. If you lock in and watch me play, you’ll see my competitive edge. And back in Fresno, I want the kids who are watching me there to know that they can do it too.”
Green stole draft night with his outfit and followed it up with the help of an upcoming collaboration. Tapping a former project for inspiration, Jeremy Scott and the Three Stripes are releasing a Forum Low with the “Money Wings” motif.
“Jalen Green has already confirmed himself as the face of a new era of NBA style, and when I heard he was joining the adidas family, I thought what could be a more befitting gift than a pair of my Money Wings, he’s about to sign his first NBA contract,” said Jeremy Scott.
In addition to Green, adidas’ draft class also includes Evan Mobley (No. 3), Jalen Suggs (No. 5),) and Sharife Cooper (No. 48).
