The NBA will be relaxing its rules regarding the color of players' footwear in 2018-19, league sources told ESPN's Nick DePaula earlier this week.
The league had already loosened some of the rules around footwear over the years, allowing players to wear team-color sneakers in addition to the traditional white or black, and introducing "theme nights," when players could wear specific colors or styles outside the norm.
However, some players have still run afoul of the rules -- perhaps most famously the player whose name is now worn on the feet of dozens of NBA players.
