Review consensus

A quick and lightweight shoe with reliable traction on indoor courts and a supportive, true-to-size fit with solid foot lockdown. Fast players will appreciate the bouncy, driving feel, though the lack of midfoot support may be an issue for those with arch issues.

About the shoe

The Greek Freak’s 3rd signature shoe, the Nike Zoom Freak 3’s release was initially overshadowed by Giannis’ championship run, but it is still an impressive show in its own right.

Two Zoom Air units under the ball of the foot help absorb energy and provide responsiveness. The set-up is low to the ground, which means the foot is in closer contact with the floor, leading to tight control for searing downhill attacks. The engineered upper helps keep Antetokounmpo’s foot contained, while the strap helps lock down the forefoot, making sure his center of gravity won’t slide over the footbed. The outsole takes inspiration from one of Nike basketball’s most recognizable traction patterns.
