Paolo Banchero Hits the Court in Magic Blue Jordan Tatum 4 PE

The Boston Celtics flew south over the weekend to play the Orlando Magic in Florida, and with Jayson Tatum on the sidelines watching his squad while he recovers from a devastating Achilles injury, Magic star Paolo Banchero gave Tatum his flowers, lacing up a pair of Magic blue Jordan Tatum 4 PEs with Tatum’s number 0 on the heel.

Banchero’s Jordan Tatum 4 PE was made to match the Magic’s new uniforms that throw it back to the Shaq days with a black and white pinstripe design and a modern Magic blue solid color above the chest logo. The Tatum 4 PE colorway starts with a white base on the toe and side panels, with a multi-color blue mix on the toebox and rest of the upper, adding white stars throughout to match the Magic logo. The back panel matches the jersey with black and white pinstripes and Tatum’s number 0. There’s also a custom “Paolo” logo added to a tag near the collar.

Banchero has solidified himself as one of the game’s brightest stars and the clear leader of the Magic squad. When it comes to his sneaker deal, Banchero has pulled out a number of PEs through his Jordan sponsor, including a recent Air Jordan 40 colorway, but Banchero is still in line for a signature sneaker opportunity.

The Paolo Banchero x Jordan Tatum 4 PE won’t be released to the public, so don’t expect to pick up this pair. To keep up with all the latest NBA signature sneaker colorways and PEs from across the league, make sure to download the Sole Retriever mobile app.
