"&lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt; Nick Young (left) had his house broken into during a Lakers game. (Noah Graham/Getty Images)&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Nick Young poured in 26 points in a rare Lakers win Sunday, only to\u00A0find out that his home had been broken into during the game and that the thieves had made off with a valuable, beloved pair of sneakers designed by rapper Kanye West.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;TMZ.com first reported that a home Young has been renting in Sherman Oaks was burglarized during L.A.'s 103-94 victory at the Staples Center on Sunday. The burglars allegedly broke in through a window and took\u00A0\"Louboutin shoes, jewelry, clothes, and Louis Vuitton luggage,\" among other items.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Young confirmed the break-in to reporters Monday, adding that a pair of the West-designed Nike Air Yeezy 2 sneakers were among the items taken.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;\"They got me, they stole my Yeezy's,\" Young said, according to the &lt;em&gt;Los Angeles Daily News&lt;/em&gt;.\u00A0\u201CI wasn\u2019t expecting that. It was tough to get in after a good win to come home to that. ... I\u2019m glad I didn\u2019t have to be in that situation [at home during the burglary]. I don\u2019t know what I would\u2019ve did. I\u2019m shocked they tried to get Swaggy.\u201D&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;All told, Young estimated that belongings worth a total of nearly $100,000 were taken, according to ESPNLA.com.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;The 28-year-old Young, a native of Los Angeles, has cultivated his \"Swaggy P\" persona\u00A0with his wild fashion choices and large sneaker collection. NiceKicks.com once named Young the \"Kicks on Court Champion,\" a recognition given to the player who wore the best shoes during games.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Over the weekend, Young posted an Instagram photo of himself wearing the all-red Air Yeezy 2 \"Red Octobers\" alongside West lyrics from the Rick Ross song \"Sanctified.\"&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;The \"Red October\" version of the Air Yeezy 2 was released by Nike in February without any advance notice.\u00A0Vibe.com reported\u00A0the sneakers, which retailed for $245, sold out in seven minutes.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt; The Nike Air Yeezy 2 sneakers are being resold on eBay for thousands of dollars. (eBay user armystrong91)&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;The sneakers are now being resold on eBay for more than $3,000 a pair.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;During his seven-year career, Young has raked in more than $17 million in earnings, and he's on the books for $1.1 million this season while also holding a $1.2 million player option for next season. In other words, he's well-equipped to replace the sneakers should he so choose, assuming the Los Angeles Police Department comes up empty. First things first, though: time to invest in a Brinks home security system.\n&lt;em&gt;Bottom photo via eBay user armystrong91&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;"^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
