Drafted 38th overall in 2014 out of Colorado, Dinwiddie was a basketball vagabond, spending much of his career in the G League, before finding a rebirth opportunity with the Brooklyn Nets. He has seized that opportunity and founded his own shoe company called K8IROS (pronounced Ky-Ros). The first shoe in his line is called the 8.1 and made its debut in the summer on his Instagram page. He followed that release up with his second silhouette, the Mark II.
