Nick Young’s Nike DunksNBA.com billed last Friday’s rookie photo shoot as the first chance to see the League’s new guys like Kevin Durant, Greg Oden, Al Horford and the rest in their pro uniforms. While that was cool, some of us were more interested in what the rooks had on their feet. Here are a few of our favorite kicks from the Rookie Shoot. Nick Young’s Dunks might have been the clubhouse favorite. Personally, I loved Julian Wright’s Jordans.

Carl Landry’s adidas.
A closer look at Nick’s kicks
I think these were Morris Almond’s, but it might have been Gabe Pruitt. I forgot.
It’s official: KD is with the swoosh. (Those are Durant’s sneaks on the left, obviously.)

Does KD have his own signature shoe?
Also, Lester, you are a even bigger moron for calling him out on the first to post message, I mean does it really bother you that much, that you dont have anything to post on the story itself but only about his post.That makes you a moron too whether you know it or not.

i’m guessing KD doesn’t have a signature shoe yet…my guess would be he’ll get one in his second season assuming he kills this year.

Those Studio Dunk ID’s are hot, I’ll have to see if NY1’s got an extra pair for the first person in the city to buy his jersey.

Those Dunks look a lot like ones that are on sale at Nike’s members only store online (same colors, but maybe slightly different materials).
