One of the few non-custom Nikes you can buy in wide widths, I wasn't sure what to expect from this shoe. I was looking for a stiff-soled shoe (because I suffer from turf toe) into which I could put a stiff orthotic insole. Since I also bought a half-size up, fitting the insole was not a problem. There is plenty of room in the toe box and the sole is already relatively stiff compared to other BB shoes.
It shoe For any and every baller out there that loves the game.

One issue I have with the shoe is the heels. They have radiused corners, not a problem in itself, but the outsole is soft blown rubber which makes the foot susceptible to rolling. I solved this issue by wearing ankle support, but would not feel comfortable without this extra support.
The shoe could use more ventilation, there are some tiny holes to allow the artificial leather to breathe, but not nearly enough. But for a half to a third the price of top of the line Nikes, I give these shoes a 4 for overall value.
I am generally a New Balance fan, but their line of BB shoes is limited, clunky, and not comfortable, even the wide ones.

These sneakers look fine but as regards fit, they are a little tight. Narrow. The pair I got came with 60" laces which I could barely tie into a single knot. Woefully inadequate for a shoe with this many eyelets. I like my laces loose so my foot doesn't chafe when in play. I replaced them with 72" laces which work fine but I could only get that length in boot-style laces. I searched Amazon for sport-style in that length and found none. So beware.
