Westbrook’s attendance didn’t come as a surprise, as he is considered one of the most fashionable NBA players playing today. ‘Brodie’ often shows up to games sporting bold and innovative clothes, which leaves fans split down the middle.
Westbrook has been in New York over the last few days, mostly for New York Fashion Week. He even posted a picture of him wearing a men’s skirt, something that NBA fans have roasted him for. But he seems to be happy with the clothing choice he made.
Steph and Ayesha have been considered one of basketball’s power couples for a long time now. And their recent philanthropic efforts have made them even more relevant in popular culture. This is probably why the couple was invited to the exclusive event.
Seeing Curry and Westbrook at the event just showed how relevant basketball is in popular culture today. Curry and Westbrook are two of the best players in the NBA today and made for great representatives of the league during the Met Gala.
