How to Choose Basketball Shoes for Ankle Support?

Basketball shoes come in different types like they can be either high and mid tops or low cuts. A variety of combinations of shoes like cushioned or non-cushioned is also available. Each type of shoe has its characteristics. The high tops have a collar similar to the sleeve above the ankle but they are heavy and thus slow the movement of the player. The mid-top shoes can cover only some part of the ankle, for jumping they increase mobility but are not best for protection. On the other hand, low cuts lack a collar and are unable to cover ankles.
