Nike, like the rest of the world, is anticipating that Team USA's basketball team will complete their undefeated Olympic run and capture the gold medal this weekend.

In celebration of the future event, Nike has revealed their "Gold Medal" collection which features Kevin Durant's KD9 and Kyrie Ivring's Kyrie 2. The "Gold Medal" Nikes also include the Nike LeBron Soldier 10, although LBJ is currently relaxing back home in the U.S.

Each of the kicks are styled differently, one black, one red and one white- though all feature gold swooshes and accents as a nod to the medal that they're inspired after. 

All three of Nike Basketball's "Gold Medal" sneakers will be arriving at retailers on August 22nd, the day after the Closing Ceremony of the Rio Olympics.
