Nick Young knows a thing or two about fashion, and perhaps his biggest asset that makes anyone stylish is confidence. The former LA Lakers player did not shy away from including himself in the list of top drippiest players the NBA has ever seen.

Sloane Weinstein, who is the host of the famous podcast “Sloane Knows” asked the 2018 NBA champion to list the 'Mount Rushmore' of the most stylish players ever in the league. Allen Iverson, Dennis Rodman, Himself and Shai Gilgeous-Alexander made it to Young’s list.

The names on his list have impacted the NBA’s style during their respective eras. Five-time NBA champion Dennis Rodman was a risk-taker when it came to style, including colorful hair and leather jackets. His style gave a vague sense of freedom itself.

Nick Young once showed up in 'jorts' for an alumni game at USC

In August last year, Nick Young was one of the big names at the USC Trojans Galen Center for an alumni game. Still active in basketball through the BIG3 League, Young made shots and threes from long distances.

Wearing his signature No. 1 Trojans jersey and rocking LeBrons, Young stood out with his choice of shorts. The athlete showed up in jeans shorts, mostly known as ‘jorts’ in fashion.
