Before Penny Hardaway was the coach of the Memphis Tigers, he was one of the best players in the NBA.<\/p>\n
Yup, in the mid-’90s the coach with the kicks was a big guard with the game of Magic but with athleticism more like Mike and shoes just as swaggy. A perennial All-Star in his prime, the retired legend laced up his famed Nike Air Foamposite One<\/strong> in the 2012 Celebrity Game in a colorway the world had never seen: the “Shooting Stars” PE.<\/p>\n Five years ago on May 17, 2014 that shoe released.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Popping up in pack fashion, the “Shooting Stars” box set paired the previously unreleased Penny PE with that of another signature shoe for his famed sidekick: the Nike Air Lil Penny Posite.<\/p>\n A sequel to the Half Cent, the pack proved the popularity of the Foamposite franchise by being able to pair a hybrid with said shoe for $500. While that was too much to ask for most, it said a lot about the steeze of the Penny line even if the double-drop was a tad greedy by Nike.<\/p>\n
