This was just sent over to me. It’s a write up on the House of Hoops event from Freshness Magazine. Pretty exciting to see this.
“The striking backdrop is essentially a mural. An epic tale of strength and perseverance, the black & white, high contrast image by Hydro74 (Joshua Smith) incorporated all the assets of the players, from the Black Mamba (Kobe Bryant), the Lion (LeBron James), to the soldier reference of Camelio Anthony. Each graphics will be detach from the overall mural and imprinted on a limited edition t-shirt collection available only through House of Hoops and Nike Town on a later date.”
Check out the whole event at Freshness Mag.
