Luis Scola - Anta

Luis Scola is the starting power forward for the Houston Rockets.  He was born on April 30, 1980 in Buenos Aires, Argentina.  He was the MVP of the Euroleague with the ACB`s Saski Baskonia.  

In 2005, Scola was drafted by the San Antonio Spurs.  There was trouble with his buyout from Baskonia, so the Spurs signed Farbricio Oberto instead.  On July 12, 2007, the Rockets acquired rights to Scola along with Jackie Butler for Vassilis Spanoulis, a future 2nd round pick, and cash considerations.  His buyout was resolved and signed a 3 year contract with the Rockets for $9.5 million.  He was named to the NBA All-Rookie First Team.  He scored 44 points (career high) against the Nets on March 13, 2010.

A laser-etched, monochromatic design, inspired by Scola, is used on the entire back quarter of the heel. A tonal light blue tone is used sparingly on the outsole, inner liner and branding while a very fitting yellow tone is used on the laces.
