The small town of Newtown, Connecticut<\/strong> was startled yesterday morning when a heavily armed man walked into Sandy Hook Elementary and opened fire, ultimately killing 26 people with 20 of them being children. The saddening news deeply touched many in the tight-knit community but also hit home with many across the nation.<\/p>\n

The Newtown, CT victims were recognized all over the NBA, as many arenas took part in a moment of silence prior to the games; however, Kevin Durant<\/strong> took his recognition a step further.?In remembrance of the late victims, Durant honored the children by writing “Newtown, CT” on his “Home” Nike KD Vs<\/strong> for last night’s Sacramento vs. OKC game. The script, seen right under the swoosh, was written on both shoes. This is a class act by Kevin Durant and reminds us of Dwyane Wade and LeBron James’ similar gesture last season following the death of Trayvon Martin. View detailed shots of Kevin Durant’s tribute with his shoes in today’s edition of Kicks On Court<\/a> below.<\/p>\n
