The latest generation of hoops prospects will find out their future on Thursday in the 2022 NBA Draft.
Fashion has become a mainstay of the association and a staple of draft night as couture choices endure in draft tradition. Players like Los Angeles Lakers star LeBron James, Houston Rockets guard Jalen Green and Orlando Magic big man Bol Bol have donned eye-catching attire on the draft red carpet in previous years.
The 2022 rookie class stepped out in stylish outfits for Thursday’s draft at Barclays Center. Some of the prospects’ looks featured sleek suits, exceptional color coordination, and intricate designs. Others showed off flashy jewelry, shades and other accessories.
Here’s a look at some of Brooklyn, New York’s best adjustments to the NBA Draft:
