Ja Morant Shows off 10 Nike Ja 3 NCAA Basketball PEs

If you’re a college basketball player looking towards the NBA game for inspiration and motivation, we can’t say that Ja Morant is currently the best example, but if you want to look good on the court, there’s no one better to emulate. The controversial Memphis guard has one of the most popular signature sneakers on the market with his Nike Ja 3, and in an Instagram post over the weekend, Ja showed off a handful of college-exclusive colorways for some of the country’s best NCAA hoops teams.

Starting with Morant’s alma mater, Murray State, the NCAA PEs move on to a who’s who of Nike’s elite college basketball programs, adding team colors for Arizona, LSU, Arkansas, Villanova, Duke, Kentucky, and in true Beaverton fashion, three colorways for the University of Oregon, one in white with yellow and green accents, another in green with yellow accents, and an alternate colorway in grey with hits of yellow.

All of the college PEs feature jersey-friendly colors, and the team logo is added in the middle of the midsole where the ZoomX branding traditionally sits on inline pairs. We had already seen the LSU and Arkansas pairs from the teams themselves, so we expect to see the rest of the colorways hit the court soon enough.

Unless you’ve been waiting in the transfer portal or contributing to early-season wins at one of the colleges listed above, you’re definitely not getting these pairs. The Nike Ja 3 has been dropping in a steady run of clean colorways, though, and you can definitely make close copies on Nike By You.
