Having been a former star at the University of Texas, Kevin Durant surprised us this past week by wearing a P.E. colorway of his Nike KD 13’s that were not from UT. Nonetheless, these KD 13’s definitely had to make our countdown for Week 5. Speaking of KD sneakers, P.J. Tucker sported one of the rarest KD samples out there, in probably the most classic silhouette of the line. Kobe 5 Protros are still going strong with the likes of Anthony Davis and DeMar DeRozan being the main front-runners for the line. A clean pair of Kobe 4 Protro P.E.’s were even spotted on one Milwaukee Bucks player.

MLK Day was one week ago today and Nike conjured up a simple, yet classic, white and gold color scheme to a couple of their on-court models. The “BHM” inspired colorway graced the Kobe 6 Protro and the LeBron 18’s, both iterations being mostly white uppers with hints of metallic gold throughout the shoe. The classic “BHM” lettering can be seen on the tongue of the Kobe 6’s. It appears a handful of Nike endorsees were seeded the Kobe 6 Protro BHM for MLK Day but we had to choose just one of those athletes for our countdown. LeBron James and Kyrie Irving got the white and gold BHM treatment on their respective signature sneakers. Scroll through to check out what shoes made up our countdown for Week 5 of Kicks Through the Lens.
