"I’m a high-cut guy. I’m a point guard, so I try to have some flexibility in the shoe. You want to be able to move around and feel like you’re not really wearing a shoe, but also have that support where, just in case you roll (your ankle), you’ll still be able to play. That, and overall comfort because you’re playing 82 games, plus practice. I think that’s something people really have to look at, the comfort of the shoe and how much it will last over that long period. I know you can switch out shoes and get new ones, but you try and get comfortable with a pair of shoes and hope they support you."
