Lonzo Ball’s shoes are basically $500 knockoff Kobes

In an attempt to ingratiate himself to the Los Angeles Lakers, Lonzo Ball will be following in Kobe Bryant’s footsteps, wearing his shoes.

The “Big Baller Brand” ZO2 shoe looks oddly familiar, with a price tag that would make Johnny Depp reconsider his spending habits.

As was expected, Twitter exploded with the kind of roasting that comes with just about any shoe release. It’s become a tradition unlike any other at this point.

As many have pointed out, the shoe doesn’t look all that bad. Thing is: It only isn’t that tough to look at because we’ve been looking at Kobes for more than a decade now.
