Midway into Ray Allen?s 16th NBA season, he made a jump in footwear. No, not just from Nike to Jordan Brand, but from a size 13 to a size 14, and later on to a size 15. The move was made to ease issues with foot pain. Allen spoke to CSNNE.com<\/a> about the change.<\/p>\n

?My feet were always hurting. I was at shootaround in Detroit two years ago, I was running through it, and when I got back to the bus, it was just like the shoes, my orthotics ? I called over to Nike and said, ?The next shoe allotment, send it to me in 15s.? I?ve been a 15 ever since.” <\/p>\n

Not only did sizing up help his feet issues, it also improved his ankle health. Coming off a series of ankle injuries, Allen further credited the change in footwear:<\/p>\n

“Down in my ankles, I need that blood to flow. Sometimes if the shoe?s too tight, you just feel pressure on your feet.?<\/p>\n

Allen?s story serves as potential advice to those dealing with feet and ankle issues and also insight to PE hunters wondering why Ray?s makeups pop up in three different sizes.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
