Dwyane Wade Ditches Shai Gilgeous-Alexander as WNBA’s Cameron Brink and More Outshine Men’s League

Dwyane Wade was voted as the most stylish man of the year twice, but that wasn’t the case in 2022 and 2023 when Shai Gilgeous-Alexander won the title by GQ based on votes. In 2024, Malik Monk grabbed the title. However, if GQ were to consider the whole basketball fraternity now, Wade’s votes wouldn’t be for either. Nothing against them though.

In a recent interview with Revole, Wade was asked to name the “best-dressed basketball players of all time” according to him. He mentioned that all WNBA athletes topped the list for their incredible tunnel looks. He specifically mentioned Cameron Brink from the LA Sparks, Angel Reese from the Chicago Sky, and Skylar Diggins-Smith for their unique styles and fashion statements.

Wade’s response came during the WNBA finals as he defended his choices.

The NBA men’s tunnel walk has been broadcast for years, establishing their signature. The W players like Cameron Brink are embracing this spotlight, enhancing their fashion game and showcasing their personal styles beyond the court.

Fans can now get a more personal glimpse of these athletes’ lives and fashion sense. The tunnel has transformed into a platform for players to express themselves before hitting the court, with diverse styles reflecting the athletes’ personalities.

The WNBA tunnel walks have attracted major fashion labels like Louis Vuitton, Gucci, Adidas, and Puma. Athletes like Dijonai Carrington, Cameron Brink, Candace Parker, Kelsey Plum, and Skylar Diggins-Smith have also been featured in high-profile campaigns and events, highlighting their influence in the fashion world.

D-Wade’s admiration for these stars’ fashion sense is evident given the impact they are making in the fashion industry.

Dwyane Wade has himself been a fashion inspiration in the league

While players like Allen Iverson and Dennis Rodman have been game changers in NBA fashion, Wade has established himself as one of the most fashion-forward NBA athletes. Teaming up with stylist Calyann Barnett, Wade’s unique fashion choices have garnered attention and praise, showcasing his personality beyond the court.

From bold blazers to cozy knits, Wade’s fashion sense has set him apart as a true style icon in the league. His unconventional yet stylish outfits have solidified his position as a fashion inspiration, as evidenced by his conversation with REVOLVE.
