This pair isn’t for the public, but it isn’t just for the kids, either. As Nike continues to bring together the best youth hoopers in the nation for a series of summer tournament circuits under the EYBL banner, The Academy in Southern California is the latest event to jump on the PE train with Nike Basketball.

Academy Ready

The Nike Sabrina 4 The Academy PE didn’t debut during the high school basketball tournament, though, instead making its way into Ionescu’s own closet for a WNBA debut. After all, what good is a PE colorway if the sneaker’s namesake can’t get her own pair?

The Academy colorway of the Nike Sabrina 4 pops in bright purple shades, starting with a shiny metallic purple on the toe, lace, and bottom side panels. A slime green outline gives way to a deep berry red shade on the rest of the shoe’s base, with more slime on the lateral Swoosh and lace tips, and a pop of gold on the “S” tongue logo and medial Swoosh.
