5 NBA stars who should walk the runaway ft. Kelly Oubre Jr.
The relationship between the NBA and fashion is closer than ever. NBA stars are making their mark in the fashion industry, showing off their unique styles and starting their own clothing lines.
Some NBA players are born with the gifts needed to walk on a fashion runway. Take a look at the list of five players who could absolutely make the cut for the catwalk.
5 NBA stars who should walk the runaway
#1 Zach LaVine
For Zach LaVine, "fashion and basketball go hand in hand.” According to the Chicago Bulls star looking good off the court helps players to play better on the court and he has loved the same mantra for a long time.
When it comes to dressing before the game, LaVine has always followed a minimalist style in his fashion and it has always worked for him. Not just that, LaVine is a well-built tall man with sharp cheekbones, he will be welcome on the runway anytime.
#2 Kelly Oubre Jr.
From rings, bracelets, expensive watches, diamond chains, and changing styles that suit how far he has come, Kelly Oubre Jr. knows a thing or two about fashion. Born in New Orleans, Oubre Jr.'s sense of style has been highly impacted by the culture of his diverse city.
It is not just what Oubre puts on his body, even his swag is a perfect match for modeling, It's a reason that Converse listens to his ideas when it comes to the aesthetics of fashion. It is not just his street fashion that he brings into the arena, Oubre can easily score a molding gig just with his face and his physique.
#3 Shai Gilgeous-Alexander
It would be an exaggeration to say that Shai Gilgeous-Alexander is the modern version of Allen Iverson. However, even someone daring to put him in the same category as Iverson speaks a lot of Shai's fashion.
The OKC Thunder star is arguably the best-dressed player in the NBA. He is even making money off the court with his vision in street clothing. He recently collaborated with Canada Goose to release his own jacket.
SGA has a unique sense of fashion, especially when it comes to streetwear and jackets. He was one of the faces of Kim Kardashian's SKIMS underwear alongside players like football superstar Neymar Jr.
#4 Jaylen Brown
There is perhaps no player in the NBA right now who would be able to carry the rugged man look better than Jaylen Brown. With a long and dense beard, chiseled body and the eyes of a man with nothing to lose, Brown has everything to set the runway on fire.
Brown doesn't roughen his fashion. He keeps it simple and it has worked perfectly for him throughout his career. Give him a suit, sunglasses, and leather shoes, and the Boston Celtics star is good to go to be the show-stopper.
#5 Russell Westbrook
Russell Westbrook has been in love with fashion since he was in college. While Russ's fashion quotient is not for everybody to grasp (ask Charles Barkley), he doesn't shy away from being risky. From formal suits to streetwear clothes, Westbrook has mastered what fashion is supposed to mean for him.
Russ has massively capitalized on his impact in the fashion industry. He now owns his own fashion brand "Honor The Gift."
