In celebration of "Mamba Day" on April 13, it is believed that Nike Basketball will release multiple Kobe Bryant-inspired sneakers. Among them, the Nike Kyrie 5 "Mamba Mentality" and the newly unveiled Nike PG3 bearing the same moniker.
Nike has not yet introduced official images or release details, but images of the special edition PG3 have already surfaced online.

In honor of the Los Angeles Lakers legend, Paul George's Nike signature sneaker comes equipped with a black and yellow color scheme, highlighted by a geometric pattern throughout the silhouette.
Mamba Day honors the date of Kobe's final game in the NBA, in which he dropped 60 points on the Utah Jazz in front of a sold out crowd at Staples Center. In the two years since that game, Nike has released numerous Black Mamba-themed sneakers and we wouldn't be surprised if the Kyrie 5 and PG 3 are joined by even more sneakers in celebration of the third anniversary next Saturday.
Stay tuned for more Mamba Day details.
