Kelly Oubre Jr. appreciates good fashion.

Add a positive message to it and he’s even more about it.

That’s why the Phoenix Suns wing gave a five-star review of the “I Have a Dream” themed Nike Kobe A.D. sneakers rookie Mikal Bridges wore in a game against Atlanta last week to celebrate Black History Month.

“These are big time,” Oubre said. “Got some great color schemes in there. Some actual colors that represent February, Black History Month. It obviously sucks that we only get one month out of the year, but just to be able to represent and put our artistry on our shoes is a blessing.
