Buzzer beaters have already become commonplace as the regular season ends and tournament play begins. The week started off quickly as Baylor Lady Bears’ star Brittney Griner scored an amazing 50 points in a pair of Nike Zoom Hyperdisruptor “Baylor Elite” PE. Players, such as Miami’s Shane Larkin, brought out heat for their last games on the home court, with Larkin lacing up the Nike Zoome KD IV “Weatherman”. We also saw Ohio State’s Lenzelle Smith Jr. rock a pair of all-red Nike LeBron X iD this week. Not to be outdone, the Duke Blue Devils wore a plethora of Nike LeBron X iDs, which seem to be a team favorite this year. However, Blue Devil guard Tyler Thornton opted to sport the Nike Air Foamposite One “Neon Royal”. Scroll through the images, and let us know who rocked the most heat in this last regular season installment of College Kicks On Court.

Minnesota Timberwolves forward Derrick Williams is obviously an avid fan of the Air Jordan 14. This season, our Kicks On Court column has spotted him in a number of 14 colorways, such as the Oxidized Green, the Light Graphite/Midnight Navy, and the Black/University Blue. In last night’s loss to the Nuggets, Williams added to his 14 onslaught by wearing the “Redwood” Air Jordan 14 from 2005. This marks the second oldest Air Jordan 14 we’ve seen Williams wear with the oldest being the previously mentioned Oxidized Green pair.

View these kicks plus more, worn by Deron Williams, John Wall, Tony Allen and others, below.

The Air Jordan 13 “He Got Game” won’t hit shelves for another week, but we all know some celebrities get their pairs a little early. This week, Bronx rapper French Montana and Harlemite Jim Jones both laced up the sought after shoe. Montana wore black pants with a black shirt covered by a black and white leather jacket with a studded lapel. Jim Jones is seen in his very own Vampire branded hat and motorcycle jacket, but opted for blue jeans with his 13s.

I’ve yet to purchase a pair of Gyakusou x Nike sneakers, but these LunarGlide+ 4s may be the game changer. I love the mix of colors on these, and LunarGlide+ 4s are my favorite Nike runners of late.
