Charlotte Hornets forward Frank Kaminsky wore some incredible shoes Wednesday night against the Magic.

The former Wisconsin star wore shoes featuring “The Office” characters Dwight Schrute, Michael Scott and included the quote, “You miss 100 percent of the shots you don’t take.”

That moment from the hit NBC show where Michael quotes Wayne Gretzky and then attributes it to himself is an all-time great moment from “The Office.”

It’s without a doubt a top 10 moment in the show, and it’s awesome that a pro basketball player is casual enough to rock shows with that message. (RELATED: NBA Player Carries Baby Down Nearly 50 Flights Of Stairs During Evacuation)

I don’t care if you like Kaminsky as a baller or not. You have to admit this is a hilarious move.

Also, why aren’t players wearing shoes from TV shows more often? I rarely get behind fashion trends, but shows based on TV shows for pro athletes sounds awesome.

Talk about some viral marketing. Imagine if we had a bunch of NBA players wearing “Game of Thrones” shoes before the eighth season started.

Why didn’t Kaminsky think of that too?

Marketing shoes with viral campaigns featuring pro athletes is a billion dollar idea. Who is going to write me a fat check for all these good ideas?

Major shoutout to Kaminsky for pulling of the show. A humorous moment for sure.
