Fashion is subjective and it is entirely up to the individual to let the clothing be an exact expression of their personality. So there is always some leeway to be experimental – even more with celebrities. But recently there have been incredibly questionable style decisions being made by NBA players than ever.

While the printed tunic and drop crotch capri pants set the Internet on fire, this is not the first nor last time an NBA player has failed miserably with their choice of wardrobe.
Here are the most notorious NBA fashion fails to serve as a reminder.

While Derrick Rose’s outfit isn’t in question, the shirt does look painted on.
While Michael Jordan is arguably the greatest NBA player of all time, he has yet to really get his personal fashion sense in line with the rest of the world. The three quarter suits, generic jeans and the infamous hoop earrings have been blemishes on his impeccable legacy.

Tim Duncan obviously gives no cares about keeping up with rest of the league in terms of fashion – especially after losing game one of the 2013 NBA Finals.
