Want new basketball shoes but i'm a bit confused as to what i should get. I was thinking maybe hyperfuses or hyperquickness's but open to other options. I play mostly point guard. So i get a lot of fastbreaks and drive ins to the ring.
Loved my old Penny's if you can get them again they were great.

google around. i searched best shoes for point guard and one of the shoes that i found got mentioned a lot was cp3's. sites spoke about what the strengths of particular shoes were. cp3s were spoken about their traction and hold on your foot which i liked the sound of. i went and tried some out and they were awesome. they suit me as i love to change direction and really push hard off my foot when i drive.
i think you should think about what qualities you want and how much you want to spend. then google google google. go into a store and try on 2 , 3 pairs of shoes. i really liked what i heard about kobe system 8's but they never had any in my size to try out :( . i tried on hyperdunks and cp3's and went with cp3's. love them. be prepared to spend $160+ for really good shoes though. that being said spending more on shoes doesn't make you a better player. it just makes it a lil bit more enjoyable , safer , and maybe the tiniest fraction easier to play the way you want to.
happy hunting

I suggest go to foot locker and have your foot measured etc, the shoe that fits best is probably the most benefit!

Kicksoncourt.com has all the info you require. Kobe 9 elites are the way to go if you can get your hands on them
Don't go for the Gazes. They literally fell off my feet lol

Jordan CP3 VI are very good for guards and don't break most of the others.
