The tragedy at a Connecticut elementary school Friday weighed heavily on Oklahoma City Thunder forward Kevin Durant’s mind.

He offered a tribute on his feet.

The three-time defending NBA scoring champion wrote “Newtown, CT” on his Nike basketball shoes for the Thunder’s game against the Sacramento Kings. The gesture came after a tweet of condolences earlier in the day.

The Thunder won 113-103 as Durant scored 31 points.
