MURFREESBORO – Douglass defeated York Institute 81-53 at Murphy Center in the BlueCross Boys basketball state championships on Thursday in the Class 2A quarterfinals.
And as good as the Red Devils (27-8) looked playing, they wanted to match that with their shoes on the court, too.
"You look good; you play good," said senior Tyler Johnson.
It's why Douglass decided to wear LaMelo Ball's signature Puma shoe, the MB.02 Rick and Morty colorway during the state tournament. The Red Devils added fashion is important to them, so which shoes they would wear while dominating on the court during the state tournament was just as important as playing in the tournament itself.
