P.J. Tucker played in Nike Air Yeezy 2s last night
P.J. Tucker has one of the most impressive sneaker collections in the NBA, and in Thursday night's win over the Clippers, he stunted in one of the rarest pairs possible.

Tucker wore the "Pure Platinum" colorway of the Nike Air Yeezy 2s, which isn't exactly known for its on-court performance. Nate Robinson played in them a couple of years ago, but no other player had dared to do so since.
Part of the reason for that is due to the fact that the highly-coveted sneakers were released in limited quantities, and now sell for thousands of dollars on the secondary market. So why wear these on the court, and risk ruining something so scarce?
"I've got two pairs," Tucker said.
