His unique sense of style had earned him the title of Most Fashionable Athlete in 2017 from Sports Illustrated. The 9x All-Star also owns a fashion label Honor The Gift. Brodie’s fashion line offered affordable fashion to connect with the youth.
The superstar also has a book title Russell Westbrook: Style Drivers. During an interview, when asked about his first introduction with fashion, Brodie replied,
“Definitely early on for me. When I was younger, I was into fashion but I wasn’t always able to afford and have the platform to express myself and do different things that I’m able to do now. I feel blessed to be at the stage in my career where certain doors are open to me in fashion.”
Though many people find the 2x scoring champions’ fashion sense bizarre, his new teammates in LA voted him as the best-dressed player in the locker room.

Westbrook’s polarizing image extends beyond his NBA career as well, especially when it comes to his fashion sense. While some slam the superstar for his bizarre outfits, some believe his unique sense of style is what gives him the edge.
Recently, the LA Lakers revamped their roster to a large extent going into the 2021-22 season. The Lakers lately conducted some fun polls amongst its roster to break the ice heading into the upcoming season.
One such category included the best-dressed player, with Westbrook winning it. The list of 9 voters that helped Brodie achieve this accolade included Anthony Davis, Carmelo Anthony, Kent Bazemore, Malik Monk, Kendrick Nunn, Talen Horton-Tucker, Chaundee Brown, Mac McClung, and Russell Westbrook himself.
