No more Nike KD V Elite PEs will be hitting the floor for this season as Kevin Durant and the OKC Thunder have gone fishing. Still very much in it though is other Nike Basketball big man LeBron James, who brought out another Nike LeBron X Miami Heat flavored PE this week while taking care of the Chicago Bulls. His sneakers also continue to show up elsewhere on the feet of the dwindling players that remain in the post season-JR Smith wore the “Superhero” version and Draymond Green got in on the NIKE iD action. Dwyane Wade continued to do his thing in the Li-Ning Way of Wade Encore, and apparently inspired heat teammate Haslem to do the same. Carmelo Anthony dialed it back just a little bit, wearing the Jordan Melo M8 advance while helping to keep the Knicks alive. See all those wears and more right after the jump in this edition of NBA Feeet.

Perhaps even more exciting than the on-court sneakers for the Thunder as they fell to Memphis last night in the Western Conference Semis were some of the shoes sitting court-side. The Nike KD V “What the KD” in particular, which was laced up by constant PE flaunter and close friend to Kevin Randy Williams. The Nike KD V proper seems to be at the end of its life-cycle by now, so we’d be pretty surprised if these made it to retail, making these passing glances all the more precious. Stay with us through the click to see the on feet shots of the “What the KD” Nike KD V and check back with Sneaker News for more info going forward.

Kevin Durant’s Oklahoma City Thunder are done for the season, but his next Nike Basketball signature shoe is coming up as the first of the next generation.

These KD 6s kick off the third quarter with a Monday, July 3rd release date; will you take advantage of an extended weekend to grab yours at launch? Let us know your thoughts on the KD VI after taking in more photos below and stick with Sneaker News for the latest.

The Nike KD V “What the KD” is on display for us once again, with the just the left shoe being shown off in this teaser. Of course on these mash-up models seeing both sides is important, as the two shoes generally slap different graphics on. This pair is no different, with %50 on display being comprised of such releases as the “All Star”, “BHM”, and “Energy” Nike KD Vs. Continue reading for the full shot and check back with Sneaker News for release info in the unlikely event that these make their way to retail.

Are Kevin Durant and his various Nike KD V Elite PEs on the way out of the playoffs? It sure seems that way, as OKC has fallen to a near-insurmountable 1-3 in their current series with Memphis. And as one of the league’s premier sneaker stars wavers another stands strong, with LeBron James and the Heat happily pushing the Bulls aside and going up 3-1. Slightly unexpected sightings from this set of NBA games sneaker-wise included a very special Air Jordan V on feet for JR Brick Smith, a random Nike Air Force Max 2013 courtside for the Spurs, and the recurring LeBron Zoom Soldier fare on the feet of one Danny Green. Continue reading for all those and more in this edition of NBA Feet.

The Nike KD V Elite “EYBL” is a sneaker that won’t be seeing a retail release, as mentioned indirectly by the man himself Leo Chang in our most recent interview with him. So now that we know there’s no chance of getting them at retail, how much would you pay to get your hands on them? Asking that very question is this auction, which is maybe just a bit too optimistic regarding the fanfare for this pair. Then again, it has definitely been the most celebrated of Nike KD V Elite colorways so we’re sure someone out there who is on the hunt will happily grab em. Continue reading for the full photos of the Nike KD V Elite “EYBL” after the jump and then check out the auction from footswagg2 on eBay.

Are you ready to see more Nike KD V pairs that you can’t have? If not then look away, cause there’s another version of that sneaker on display here that likely won’t be getting a retail release. This time around it’s not one connected to any given high school, team, or player that we can think of though. The combination is a white and royal one up top, with a pine green treatment for the midsole and a speckle overlay. Reconvene after the jump for a better look at the Nike KD V pair and tell us in the comments which of these unreleased looks you’re feeling the most.

How do you get your hands on a boatload of Nike KD V exclusives intended for high school kids if you’re not involved in youth hoops?

Continue reading for a sneak peek and stay tuned for some more unique Nike KD V pairs.
