Ja Morant’s Murray State-themed Nike Ja 2s aren’t the only college colors appearing on the NBA star’s second signature sneaker. On Friday, Morant took to social media to show off a new batch of player exclusives for six different Nike-sponsored schools.

Included in the mix are Arizona, Duke, Kentucky, LSU, Oregon and UConn. Out of all the teams, the Oregon Ducks have the most options with three colorways to choose from in white, yellow and black. Duke, LSU and UConn all have two apiece in traditional home and away looks. Meanwhile, the Arizona Wildcats and Kentucky Wildcats each have one white-based style included in the preview.

Changes to the sneakers are subtle yet easily recognizable for fans of the schools. The Nike Ja 2’s lateral ribbed paneling and mesh uppers remain unaltered, but the colors of each pair have been blocked to match their respective teams. Elsewhere, university logos appear on the tongues.

It’s not yet confirmed if any of these Nike Ja 2 college PEs will potentially be released, but it’s unlikely based on Nike’s past player exclusive rollouts. However, Morant’s Murray State hall of fame induction colorway was launched in September, so it’s not completely out of the question.

Next up for the retail releases of the Nike Ja 2 is a Halloween-themed “Nightmare” edition set to hit nike.com and select Nike Basketball retailers on Oct. 25 for a retail price of $130.

Also on Friday, Morant debuted a new colorway of the Nike Ja 2 while the Memphis Grizzlies hosted the Miami Heat in a preseason loss. The white colorway featured a yellow Swoosh and a paint splatter effect across the entire shoe. There’s currently no word on if this pair will be released.
