Nike had a planned re-release of Charles Barkley’s signature Nike Air CB 34, originally launched in 1995, but reportedly, the sneaker giant will no longer place the classic Barkleys on sale as expected.

The sneakers were canceled, but that didn’t stop Barkley from giving his opinion on Bronny James and the development of his game.
He was talking to Dan Patrick, and he stated that the namesake of LeBron James should have been playing in the G League all season instead of sitting on the bench and not getting better by watching the action from the bench.
“He should be in the G League, getting better as a player. He should have been in the G League all year. I think it was a great story for them to go on the court together, but he should be in the G League. Dan, you don’t get better sitting on the bench.”
Barkley may have touched on a great point, as Bronny has finally broken out of the funk he showed in NBA play and has been a steadier player with regular work in the G League, recently scoring a career high 39 points in a recent game with the South Bay Lakers.
