Puma MB.05 Team JR LaMelo Ball Basketball Shoe Gray
LaMelo Ball is now on his fifth signature model with Puma, and this is its youth line. The upper is textile with a cloudy white-and-gray print, the sole wraps around the shoe in waves and the laces run far toward the front. Low collar, so your ankle stays free.
What’s in that sole?
Puma uses NITROFOAM: foam injected with nitrogen. That makes it lighter than regular foam, and it springs back instead of flattening out. You feel it on the landing after a jump, and on the fiftieth sprint of a practice.
Indoors on hardwood or outdoors on concrete?
Both work. The outsole is rubber with a tread that grips a lacquered indoor floor, and rubber is also the material that lasts longest on asphalt. If you only play outdoors, tread wear remains the thing to keep an eye on; that goes for every basketball shoe.
I have wide feet, will this fit?
Puma builds this model on a wide last, and that is exactly why players whose feet press against the sides in other brands choose it. There is room across the ball of your foot. If you have a narrow foot instead, it may feel too roomy because of that. Check Puma’s size guide to find your size.
Also for korfball, handball or volleyball?
Yes. At its core, a basketball shoe is an indoor shoe: rubber sole, low stance and lateral support. If you play korfball, handball or volleyball in the same gym, you can use it just as well for that.
Which player is it for?
For a youth player who changes direction a lot and likes to bring the ball up themselves. The low collar lets your ankle turn, the foam absorbs the landing and the wide base stays stable when you slow down. If you are just starting out in basketball, this is a great first real basketball shoe.
We often sell this model to youth players whose feet push against the sides in other brands, because the last is wide. Have your child try it on with the socks they play in, because thick sports socks take up noticeably more room.
Does your child play youth basketball and want LaMelo Ball’s shoe
Does your child have a wide foot that pushes against the sides in other brands
Is your child starting basketball and is this their first real basketball shoe
Does your child also play korfball or volleyball in the same gym
If your child has a narrow foot, this wide last can feel too roomy; choose a narrower model then.
If you want support around the ankle after a sprain, choose a mid-top model or add an ankle brace.
Take your child’s usual size: the fit is regular to wide.
There’s room across the ball of the foot, nice for anyone who feels squeezed in other brands.
Sizes 35.5 through 39 are in stock; check the Puma size guide.

Have your child wipe the sole after practice; floor dust shows right away on white.
Clean the upper by hand and let it dry at room temperature.
