Fashion King Russell Westbrook made a statement with his fashion at Sports Illustrated’s Fashionable 50 bash last night. Go inside to celebrate with the NBA baller, plus peep flicks of Draya, Orlando Scandrick, Rachel Lindsay and more hitting the carpet…
Not only is he this year’s NBA MVP (thanks to the recording breaking triple-doubles), he’s also Sport’s Illustrated’s Most Fashionable Athlete.
To celebrate his new SI cover and No. 1 spot on the list, the Oklahoma City Thunder baller hit the carpet for Sports Illustrated's Fashionable 50 bash held in L.A. Tuesday night.
The fashion loving point guard rolled up on the carpet in a denim-on-denim look paired with a gray ripped "Fight Racism" t-shirt, serving up a vintage look he was more than proud of.
"I just love the shirt. Obviously, it stands for a lot of things," Russell told Sport’s Illustrated on the carpet."I love the shirt and the way kind of it rips. Just the whole message in the rips go all together in my opinion. Just putting on a nice vintage look."
The new dad was joined on the carpet by his beautiful wife (and new mom) Nina Westbrook, who also rocked denim for the occasion.
Proud parents! Russell's parents came out to celebrate.
You may love Russell’s fashion flare, or it may not be your cup of tea. Either way, it doesn't matter to him because he doesn’t wear it for anyone's approval.
“I wear a combination of everything,” he explained in his SI magazine cover story. “I go with what I’m feeling and with what looks good, regardless of how much it is. I want to show people across the world that you don’t always have to wear high-end. Whatever it is, you can still be fashionable.”
