Jose Alvarado is an American guard on his hometown New York Knicks, and wore Nikes for a time until signing a lucrative deal with Chinese sports brand Peak in early 2023. He wore the Taichi Flash 6 silhouette, after previously opting for the awkwardly named Surging Technology Triangle 2.0 silhouette on court.
After his deal with Peak expired in 2025, Alvarado has mostly returned to Nike, choosing the Nike Book 2s most frequently this season.
Undrafted in 2021 out of Georgia Tech, Alvarado is known for his signature secret steals and overall feisty play.
