When the Los Angeles Lakers take the floor for their regular season opener against the Portland Trail Blazers on Thursday, Kyle Kuzma will be wearing a customized pair Kobe ADs designed by the 23-year-old.

The session took place just after the NBA announced a rule change removing all color restrictions on footwear so the players, a group that included Collin Sexton, De’Aaron Fox.
