Zion Williamson took Kyrie's side in shoe debate in front of LeBron Jr.


Duke freshman Zion Williamson is honest in his shoe takes. So honest, in fact, that the presence of LeBron "Bronny" James Jr. did not sway him from offering an impartial - and correct - opinion on the Nike shoe battle.

Before winning a national title this weekend in North Carolina, Bronny and his teammates with the North Coast Blue Chips paid visit to the Duke basketball facility. The team of middle schoolers got an opportunity to hang out with Williamson and tour the Duke locker room.

Williamson showed off his shoe collection, and when he was asked to choose his favorite Nike sneaker, he sided with Kyrie Irving.

Bronny's teammates all had a good time with the moment. They gave Williamson an exaggerated cough after the question to remind him that he was in Bronny's presence and laughed when the Duke freshman didn't side with the LeBron sneakers.

Personally, I think Williamson made the right choice. The Kyrie 4s are great shoes.
