Definitely one of my favorite basketball shoes. It’s very light, bouncy, and the traction is surprisingly good. It barely collects dust. Comfortable around the ankles. I recommend buying a size up (half or a full inch).

Nike G.T. Cut Academy
Wherever your hoop, lace up in the G.T. Cut Academy. Designed to help you create space for game-changing plays, its sticky multicourt traction helps you stop on a dime and shift gears at will—wherever your next game is calling you.
Traction: High
The more traction you have underfoot, the more separation you can create from your opponent. It can help you stop on a dime and shift gears at will. Giving you stop-and-go traction from heel to toe, its herringbone pattern is ideal for lateral cuts and quick changes in movement.
Responsiveness: Moderate
The more responsive the shoe, the more energy return you can get back with each cut, pivot and move to the hoop. Responsive shoes help give you more spring in your step so you can feel fast for four quarters. A bottom-loaded forefoot Air Zoom unit helps you play fast on the floor when the game goes uptempo.
Cushioning: Moderate
The more cushioning that you have underfoot, the more comfortable your game can be. We stacked the midsole with two foams, giving you an unreal level of comfort and support. It's perfect for long hoop sessions on unforgiving surfaces.
