Kicks On Court

Although an NBA season seems far-fetched at this point, our Kicks On Court column will still appear on the site in some form or fashion. Following the debut of Durant’s “Wolf Grey” Nike Zoom KDIV in Dallas, we spotted an abundance of sneaker heat in the Dwight Howard ‘D12′ Celebrity All-Star Game Recap. In detail, Penny Hardaway was spotted in the “Memphis Blues” Nike Zoom Rookie during warm-ups and later switched to his all-white Nike Air Foamposite One PE for the game. Another surprise came in the form of Gilbert Arenas’ footwear. The combo guard laced up a custom Air Jordan 6 that featured multiple Orlando Magic elements such as the black/white pinstripes and the blue and white colored panels. Additionally, Lil Wayne, who coached one of the teams this weekend, paced back and forth on the sidelines while wearing the “Binary Blue” Nike Zoom Rookie. View these kicks plus more, worn by Dwight Howard, Quentin Richardson, Earl Clark, Steve Francis and others, below.

Hate me all you want, but….Hey Wayne! Pull yer fuckin’ pants up! Its played out!

Codeinefiend
Stfu bitch, I’m not defending Wayne but he and everyone else has the right to wear their clothes how they wanna. If u wanna wear ur pants proper and on ur waist that’s u so stop worrying about the next person and wut u need to do is stop looking at niggas asses to see if their sagging or not homo ass nigga. U obviously are a follower/hypebeast talking bout that shit “played out”, be ur own man and do what wanna not wut others are doing gay ass motherfucker worried about trends, stop bitching about niggas pants sagging so gtfoh ho. It’s a shoe website so next time try looking at the shoes not how niggas wear their shit pussy faggot

Codeinefiend

WZA
Penny is killin’ shit wit them Memphis Blue rookies & all white foams
http://twitter.com/Jay_Fresh07 Young.Sweet.Jones
why would u make an all-white foamposite??? doesnt that defeat the purpose of “foam color changing material”….. idk just sayin…. when they all white u cant get the full effect of the shoe
http://twitter.com/BlockStar101 Noradon Dixon
yes Gilbert Arenas is jumping off of a trampoline.He been doing so since Golden State.Wish they had footage of said game.i know Steve Francis was crossing them up.
SoleofDMV
Lil Wayne wearing foams signifies the end of the foamposite trend. A shoe that was originally a collectors piece is now another part of mainstream urban fashion. Smh. Death top another dope Nike sneaker.
http://twitter.com/DonnieGenaro Bangs Riggs
Wow a Steve Francis sighting… I was wondering what happen to the Franchise… why is he rocking those 8.0?
Emmanuelabor
“originally a collectors piece”? Word..zoom rookies? I thought both foamposites and rookies were orignally shoes to play basketball in. You dudes give too much credit…Wayne ruined some shoes for you? You might wanna check yourself
Joel Oliver
Since NiceKicks didn’t approve my comment with a link in it, the 6s Gilbert Arenas is wearing were done by Mizzee Customs. Not sure what he’s been up to lately, he’s been ghost since late August.
