Last night in Portland, OR the 2018 Doernbecher Children's Hospital x Nike collection was released to the public and per-usual, there's a lot of heat in the lineup.

It's no suprise that LeBron James would have attended The Ohio State university (my high school math teacher went to Ohio State and always made a point to emphasize 'the' in Ohio State). Being an Ohio native, LeBron's love for Ohio State goes way back to his childhood - from football to basketball folks from the Buckeye region...
