NBA Basketball Players' Best Looks From the Tunnel

On and off the court, these all-stars know how to make a statement.

The NBA Tunnel is undoubtedly one of menswear's most influential runways. With personal branding of the utmost importance, the league's biggest stars have turned arena entrances into a showcase of their style and the latest trends. Long gone are the days of casual athletic attire. Now, the basketball supernovas are changing the game with Gucci, Hermès, and Dior dripping off the likes of Jason Tatum, Russell Westbrook, and Chris Paul.

The crossover between fashion and athletics is becoming increasingly evident. Just last year, Dior's limited edition collaboration with Air Jordan created a flurry of excitement within the basketball community with resell values soaring to upwards of $15,000. Even the players themselves have played an active role with Oklahoma City Thunder point guard Shai Gilgeous-Alexander walking Thom Browne's latest Spring/Summer 2023 menswear collection. Clearly, basketball is becoming increasingly familiar with the world of high fashion. Here, L'OFFICIEL rounds up the best NBA tunnel looks.
