The NBA's regular season wraps up today. In celebration of the start of the NBA playoffs, Nike Basketball has unveiled their annual post-season collection which includes the signature sneakers of LeBron James, Kevin Durant, Kyrie Irving and Paul George.

Nike Basketball's "Flip the Switch" collection spotlights the postseason's electricity with unique fade patterns and broken Swoosh logos on the LeBron 14, Kyrie 3, KD9 Elite and the PG1.

Per Nike,

LeBron 14: Built for James's explosive style of play, the LEBRON 14 features a white and black upper with articulated Zoom Air — the ultimate cushioning system for the four-time MVP and three-time champion.

KD9 Elite: Kevin Durant hopes to bring the golden trophy back to the Golden State, and his KD9 Elite features a melange grey Flyknit upper with a midsole gold fade running above the full-length Zoom Air unit. 

Kyrie 3: In Game 7 of last year's Finals, Irving's heroic three-pointer sealed Cleveland's first title. The prolific point guard is equally energized for this year's postseason run with a dark grey KYRIE 3 that features a multicolor blue and purple outsole with highlighted traction pods. 

PG1: Since debuting in January, the PG1 has created buzz both on and off the court. George's dark grey PG1 is set off with a bright forefoot strap and midsole fading. 

The four-sneaker collection will release globally on May 5th at Nike.com and select retailers.
