Fortnite: Battle Royale (PC, PS4 & Xbox One) also excites basketball stars. A professional player of the Los Angeles Lakers is so crazy about the game that he had custom shoes made in the Fortnite style.
Fortnite: Battle Royale attracts millions of gamers every day to the PC or consoles. Among them is basketball pro Josh Hart. He plays as a guard for the top team of the Los Angeles Lakers.
When Hart is not training for his sport, he passionately plays Fortnite: Battle Royale. And to make sure everyone notices, he had a special pair of shoes customized.
The right shoe for fans!
Hart wanted special shoes that would reveal his love for Fortnite to everyone. Therefore, he asked the artist Salvador “Kickstradomis” Amezuca from Los Angeles to create a special pair of shoes for him.
The special kicks were originally Nike Kobes, but after Kickstradomis was done with them, they looked quite different. The shoes shine in vibrant purple and green. On one side, Josh Hart is depicted as a Fortnite character. He carries a scythe-like harvesting tool.
On the other side, you can see Josh’s glider and the inscription “Eliminated by JoshHartNova”. That’s his gamer tag, and anyone who gets taken out by Josh Hart in the game sees it.
Fortnite on the basketball court
In a video by Kickstradomis, the shoes are ceremoniously handed over to Hart, who is thrilled. During a Lakers game against the Sacramento Kings, Hart wore the shoes at least during warm-up.
Had to hand deliver these @FortniteGame customs to @joshhart to see his reaction in person! Look out for these on court sometime in the near future!! pic.twitter.com/IWu0N0TTMZ

Whether he wore them in the game itself is unclear, as the NBA has strict rules regarding shoes. In any case, Hart scored 10 points and the Lakers won the game 113 to 108.
This streamer doesn’t need special shoes to rock in Fortnite. He is well on his way to becoming a millionaire thanks to his Fortnite streams.
