NBA Jordans Daily: Bledsoe & Tucker Step Into Their Own Shadows

Eric Bledsoe has been a longstanding fan of the Nike LeBron line and P.J. Tucker has been a Nike Basketball guy, dabbling in Kobe 9 and, lately, the Kyrie 1. Last night both set aside their usual kicks to lace up the Air Jordan 10 “Shadow,” one half of 2008’s X/XIII Jordan Countdown Pack.

The shoe’s muted dark grey looks proved a good match for Phoenix’s alternate grey uniform even if neither Sun played particularly well in them. Bledsoe, his team’s star leader, scored well off his 17 a game average with just five points, while key cog Tucker overplayed his 8.9 a game with 12 points. Phoenix wrested a 74-72 win from New Orleans, a crucial win for the Suns as they battle to stay alive in the playoff race.

Take a gander at these Jordan 10s and more in this quick wrap-up of Thursday night’s action…
