Zion Williamson pays homage to Martin Luther King Jr. with custom kicks

Zion Williamson isn't suiting up to take the court for his highly anticipated NBA debut until Wednesday, but the New Orleans Pelicans rookie is already winning.

Williamson paid homage to Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. with a pair of custom MLK Day-inspired kicks during warm-ups:

The phrases "It starts with you," "We are our choices," and "Beyond circumstance" could be made out among the inspiring messages emblazoned across the Nike footwear.

We see you, Zion.

Now, can it be Wednesday already?
