Jalen Brunson made his return to the court in style, just in time for the Knicks’ 2025 playoff push. After missing 15 games due to an ankle injury, the star guard delivered a standout performance while rocking an equally eye-catching pair of kicks: the Nike Kobe 5 Protro “The Joke’s On You” PE.
This exclusive player edition builds off the fan-favourite Kobe 5 “Chaos”, originally inspired by the Joker. Brunson’s version takes the theme further with even bolder styling. The upper features a vivid purple base, electric green laces and Swoosh, and red inner lining for an added punch of drama.
The design nods to both Kobe Bryant’s legacy and Heath Ledger’s iconic Joker character capturing a balance of chaos and control that mirrors Brunson’s game. A neon green outsole with Kobe’s logo in red adds the final touch to this striking PE.
