Nike released Ja Morant’s new Ja 1 “Hunger” sneakers on the SNKRS app Thursday, and the shoes sold out within 20 minutes of the launch. The release comes as the Grizzlies star serves an indefinite suspension after he displayed a gun on Instagram Live, his second such suspension in recent months.
This is Morant’s second Nike shoe, as the first Ja 1s were announced in December and released in February.
After Morant flashed a gun in a Colorado nightclub during an Instagram Live stream in March, Nike released a statement supporting Morant’s decision to work on himself.
