We embrace them head-on.” Inspired by this exchange, Nike Basketball is set to launch a special edition Ja 1 “Smoke” colorway.

UPDATE 9/29: Ja Morant’s suspension resulted from an incident involving a firearm, prompting Nike to replace the “We Ain’t Ducking No Smoke” quote on his shoe with a traditional patch, although the quote was originally meant to convey the Grizzlies’ fearlessness in competition rather than promoting violence.
