The longtime friends joined forces once again for another promotional skit, which shines a spotlight on the Nike KD 19 “Purple Candies” or “Purple Stuff” colorway. Drake shows up at Durant’s house inside of a giant box designed to ship him the newest pair in-person.
Enjoying the chemistry between the pair, Drake takes an innocent sneaker drop to another level, truly giving a performance. Drake also manages to slip in a playful jab at adidas and Anthony Edwards while he’s there.
This is just the latest Nike KD 19 promotional skit to focus on Durant and Drake hanging out. While Drake has featured prominently in several promotions for Durant’s latest signature shoe, the sneakers shown so far haven’t been official NOCTA collaborations.
This “Purple Candies” iteration moves away from the vibrant, multi-hued designs of earlier releases, presenting Nike’s interpretation of a monochromatic purple sneaker. Every possible shade of purple adorns the silhouette, creating a look that will definitely get noticed.
The Nike KD 19 “Purple Candies” releases June 17, 2026, through Nike SNKRS and select Nike Basketball retailers. The retail price is set at $155.
